Having issues with the driver side. The main bulb comes on when first started then flickers out. I'm thinking its a bad bulb I'm almost at 100k. Has anyone used PIAA G3 LED? it keeps saying that it is longer than OEM bulb so to check clearance.

Have you tried swapping the bulbs to see if the issue moves? I'd try that first. No sense replacing a bulb and then it turns out to be the ballast.

More than likely the ballast. I had flickering in my driver side as well, it was the ballasts. I replaced both at the same time.

I just switch out HID to LED, have to change the ballast also.......
