My car has a problem with the headlights. They are stuck on Hi Beams I can not get the switch to work for them to go to low beams. Can the hi beam light be replaced with a low beam light?

Can't replace the 9005 (high beam) with 9006 (low beam). They look identical, but they don't interchange. You may be able to adjust the high beam down and low enough that they won't blind the oncoming traffic. Beam pattern won't be the same but at least you'll have headlights.

Look around at the wrecking yard. You may find a multi-function switch for reasonable amount to fix the problem.
