HID problem

I have a '01 180TT coupe with HID's. Recently my drivers side bulb started turning pinkish and now after about two weeks of that it goes out intermitently. I'm not sure if its the bulb because the light will go out and my display tells me its out but if i turn it off and on again it comes back on (only for about a minute though). Does this sound like a problem with the box or bulb?

Swap bulbs (side to side) and see. My bet is on the bulb.

Duh!! I'm obviously not very sharp to not think of that first. So i just did that and found out it is the bulb. Anyone know where to get a decent price on the bulb?

you can try your luck on Ebay ;->

ECS Tuning has them too... $100 plus each, depending upon wattage and color temperature...
