Headlights Don't work

I just replaced a headlight in my 97 boxster and now no headlights work. What gives? It looked like a straight foreword job. I did check the fuses in A 1,2,910.

:eek:

How do you know that the rotors need replacing. Do you measure runout and/or is there a minimum thickness to the rotor?

Swap seats in Boxster

Are the two seats in the boxster identical? If they are, how would I remove them and switch sides. The drivers seat is much more worn than the passengers so this would make sense.
