Question both headlights out!

Ok just going to cut to the chase! Both of my headlights are out !!! Checked the fuses, nothing wrong there!

I am running however Sylvania silverstar ultra bulbs but I cant see them both going out at the same time?! I do however have high beams, just not lows The car is going into the stealership on Tues but I wanted to know what you guys/gals think first.

please and thankyou

Thumbs down Don't waste your money!!

The bulbs were sacked!!.. Headlight bulbs have 2 filiments, one for high and the other for low.. One low beam was blown and the other was almost toast as well so ya, DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY on Sylvania's .. My car has the stock bulbs in and now the car is fine The bulbs were also maybe a yr old..

Probably the bulbs. It may seem wired to have both go out at the same time, but it happened to me. One night on my way to school both lights worked, but when I left that night I thought it was kinda dark then i realized i had no headlights. drove home with my high beams and the next day checked the lights, both tips of the bulbs were melted off.
