Headlights and maybe something else?

This is a preemptive thread, I'm going outside to check it now. Last night both of my low beams stopped working. The high beams worked, all other lights and signals, and switches work properly. Its probably a fuse, but I have also been noticing lately (but no time to address it) that my horn sounds a little weak, and once in a while my right turn signal blinks really fast like it needs to be replaced, but the bulb itself still works.

Any ideas? There's been a ton of salt on the road lately, and its been really friggin cold here like everywhere else.

I'm not as mechanically inclined as I'd like to be.

*UPDATE* Both bulbs blew out, apparently at the same time? I pull into a driveway up to a white fence every night, I never noticed only one headlight out.

Headlights often die very close together which is why they usually sell them in pairs and tell you to replace both even if only one is dead. But considering your signal and horn issues I think it's possible you have something else going on. Might not be a bad idea to test your battery and check the fuses. If you have any other wiring for aftermarket stuff you may want to check that for shorts. If you have a lot of aftermarket electrical you might want to consider a better battery like a Northstar or Optima.
 
Just noticed in the other thread that you've done the H9 to H11 conversion. One more point of failure to consider...
