Are the bulbs still original? If so it may be just the bulb coming to the end of its life.

Just get two new Philips D2R 4300K bulbs!

You can get a set on ebay for under $60 new. Or, you can buy them from folks on the board in the Black Market or some of our vendors have new bulbs you can buy at good prices. Check out the Black Market forum and then click on Sponsor/Group Buys, etc

I bought a new pair last month off ebay. I would suggest the same.

Now too bad I just found out my ballast took a dump!
