Headlight Problem

I have been having problem with the headlights in my 95. I installed Silverstars about 6 months ago. About a month ago the driver side went out and i replaced it with silverstar again. The passenger side is still working fine. What could be causing the driver side to go out?

Should i switch to a different type of bulb? OR this seems like a good time to switch to 9007's. Is the harness at Wal MArt sufficient or do i need a better one? What is a good 9007 bulb?



Thanks

Silverstars suck man. I have them and I am just waiting for them to go out. After installing the 4th one in my truck I finally said screw it. The 9007 conversion is definately worth it I did mine last year.

I got the Sylvania XtraVisions in mine right now. I love them. I've heard that the Silverstars, while nice, don't last very long so that could be the problem.

I did the 9007 conversion with no special wal-mart harness or anything. I just filed down one of the nubs inside each headlight bulb hookup thingie, and the 9007s slid right in like they were meant for it.
