Default Going to the GF's today i noticed my headlights did not come on....

All the other lights work fine, side and fog are both on, just both headlights are out. The high beams still work, and i have checked all the fuses under the hood and they are all fine. Thoughts on what might cause this? hard to believe both headlights went out at the same time.

You're both wrong, I think it's the switch.

Default headlight switch is in the column for the headlight/cruise/etc

wheel needs to come of. Top cover and bottom column covers come off. Switch is attached to the bottom cover. Not too complicated and no, you do not usually have to keep one with you, they don't go out that often.
