Default Left headlight flickering then turning off?

I have aftermarket HIDs from vvme.com..put them in about two years ago..now the left headlight turns off every now and then..i have to turn my lights off and turn them back on and it comes back on, but sometimes turns back off..is the problem with the bulb or the ballast?

if its with the bulb, can you recommend some good replacements? thanks!

It could be either. Swap them around and see what happens. It'll take a little troubleshooting to confirm it but chances are it's the igniter in the ballast.
