The bigger led's are probably composed with 3 dies per chip in series ( 3x 3.2v ) and need 10.8 volts to even start to light up.
There are 2 voltages on the headlight body; 13.2v and 13.6 volts which seem to be the min and max operating voltage, 9 volts is just too small to light the chip, but it may actually be that the unit requires a driver unit since the system voltage can be as much as 14 volts which could spell the end of the led's, so we need more confirmation from other members which have the led light and have had a look inside their head light bucket.
Good of you to be careful; max
