Left headlight goes out sporadically

Good evening, all! I have an 01 TL that I've been repairing bit by bit and the latest issue is that the left low beam doesn't ignite intermittently. I'll have to switch my lights on and off, then they'll stay on for a bit then shut off randomly. I'm wondering if it's the ballast or the ignitor Either way, I've been trying to find a replacement (i don't care if it's OEM or aftermarket as long as I can go to my mechanic to fix it) and I haven't found luck. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Replace the ballast with an aftermarket one. I am partial to Morimoto ballasts from www.thretrofitsource.com

I was confused by that because I don't have daytime running lights, but I knew I wasn't looking for high beams or fog lights. I'm still very new to this car stuff, I apologize.
