Default Headlight delay when turned on.

This is no huge issue or anything, but it's just annoying me... Whenever I turn my headlights on, the drivers side light will come on about 2 seconds after the passenger side comes on. It started doing this two months ago. Any ideas?

Check to make sure the harness isn't all corroded and whatnot on the driver's side.

Possibly loose connection to the bulbs through the rubber guards. If the connectors are locked in, but still kinda jiggle around, use a pair of needle nosers and tighten them till they make a good fit, or tug gently on the wires until they make tension, causing a good connection through the grommet. It's hard for me to explain, but I had exactly this problem before, and I did the latter to fix it. No problems, going on 3 months now.
