Unhappy Headlight Low Beams Do Not Work

So I have been driving around with no low beams on for a few days..I have been using my high beams. I have been trying to figure out what it could be. I thought it could be my bulbs but I thought if you're high beams still work then it wouldn't be the bulbs, plus both sides stopped working at the same time. So today I thought it could be the fuses but I changed them and still no low beams. So I don't know what to do. I don't want to change the bulbs if its not a bulb because its a pain taking the headlights out. I was thinking of just buying projectors but If its something wrong with the wiring I don't want to spend money on the projectors if thats not going to solve the problem. Anyone have a guess of whats wrong? I would take it into the dealership but my warranty is up.

I just changed a bulb a few hours ago. The low beam was out but the high beam worked. Maybe it is that both low beams are out. Crazy odds for both to go out at one time though, that's wierd.

yes it is possible for your low beams to go out, but your highs to still work, i had the same problem, just switch out the bulbs and you should be golden... 9007 is the bulb size

--bringing back an old thread but the search button didn't help--

I'm in the process of changing my driver's side lightbulb. got the assembly out and power disconnected, how the hell do you get the old bulb out? Stubborn as hell. Some trick that I don't know?
