Im on my second pair of bulbs. I installed them like 7 months ago and it worked fine. Lately while im driving its flicks and sometimes the one side goes off and when you turn the lights off and then back on both sides work. Does anyone else have this problem or know what would be wrong?

Thanks

Are you sure it's only your bulbs? Have a look at your ballasts and ignitors also.

what brand of bulbs?- they are the correct HID bulbs for the TL ? how much did they cost?
Did you wear latex gloves when handling the bulbs to install?

If you get oil from your fingers on the glass- it gets baked on and makes a hot spot- a while later, the bulb dies very young

Any moisture inside the lens issues?
that will not only kill bulbs, but leaks down into the ballast- guess what happens then

i bought it from ebay cant remember what brand it was. It cost around 100. i didnt wear latex gloves but im pretty sure i didnt touch the bulb but could be wrong. Im not really sure what a ballast is.

a PAIR of hid bulbs for a TL- for a hundred bucks- thats really cheap

wikipedia HID lighting and see what part does what- ballast- ignitor -capacitor- bulb

try swapping them left to right and if the flicker follow the change its the bulb----
