Tried replacing the bulbs themselves, and nothin'

I haven't looked for the fuse yet, but I assume it's located on the inside dash somewhere? (1992 929)

Any other thoughts on what it might be?

Fuses for headlights should be in the engine bay.
Fairly hard to miss, usually has headlights written on it.

The first thing you should be doing is checking if there is power to the bulbs. Then work ur way back from there.

Ended up being the switch, which would've been a crazy amount to fix, so the shop I took it to just installed a toggle switch for the headlights. A little ghetto I suppose, but it saved me about $400.

You could have went to the junk yard or checked ebay for the part.
