Question Headlights Uneven

I got a quick question. I was driving around last night and a friend of mine told me that one of my headlights was out. When I went to look at it, one was very bright and the other one was pretty dim. Obviously when in high beam, you can't tell the difference, but in regular low beam, it looked pretty bad (the right headlight had a very weak yellow glow to it, while the other one looked fine). I do not have litronics and was wondering if there is a bulb out there that anyone recommends for a headlight. And should I change both at the same time to keep them 'in synch'?

Thanks,
Ash

Sounds like the low beam head light is out. Why replace both? If you want to throw away your money, I'd be happy to give you my address <img src="graemlins/c.gif" border="0" alt="[ouch]" />

I usually replace the pair and keep the good used one for a spare. (I've never had to do this twice!)
