Not sure about the high beam one, but the low beam is aka "the John Deere bulb". It mentions in the description that it's made by Toshiba (just like the JD), and this...

"Interestingly enough, the 9011 bulb can be used in a 9005 lamp with a simple modification with a Dremel tool or file. Due to federal regulations, we can not make this modification, but you, the end user, can. The material to remove is marked on each bulb."

...is verbadim the same as the JD bulb description on various websites...

its amazing if you google 9011 bulbs, there are forums for all types of vehicles doing this, and some have links back to mud as the source
