I did. I learned to replace them in pairs. If the headlight goes, replace them
both. The same holds true for the others too. If not, you'll replace them like
everytime you turn around.

It could be an indication for a failing alternator. It is just your headlights, or seemingly random lights around the car? If random, have your alternator checked as soon as possible, before worse damage is done.
