My headlights while driving turn off, but the parking lights, brake lights and everything else stay on. When the headlights turn off and the knob to the headlights is touched or jiggled they come back on, but soon after turn off again. Could there be a short and where?

How hard is is to remove the headlight switch? This is behind the panel right? Do these switches go out very often? Any ideas on where i can get engine to transmission bolts?
