i went to a junkyard, pulled 2 or 3, stuck them in my pocket, and went home and installed and it fixed my problem.

do both your brights work? i know only one of mine worked before and it also fixed that.

yeah, both brights work. Its just the driver side one that stays on even when the headlight switch is off and the lights are flipped down.
