Default 2006 ES330 headlight vibration

My 06 Black Diamond Edition ES330 has HID headlights, but lately the passenger side has developed a vibration ( light flickers) while car is moving, or even @ idle. Has anyone else ever experienced this? I don't drive the car very often, but after driving it the other night, I can see why my wife is annoyed by it. Any help would be appreciated. How do I change my name to touchofgrey not touchofgre as well. Thanks for now. D.

bulb might be loose. I have a 04 ES and the bulbs are a pain to change. Have you or anyone else changed the bulbs lately?

Could be something came loose in the auto-leveling mechanism.

Both headlights were replaced by Lexus shop in US before I bought the car. The lights were completely out of alignment, and were re-aligned by my son and myself several months ago. I thought @ the time that it was kind of a mickey mouse set up, and now that one quivers like a lone mouse in a room full of cats my opinion of the parts turned out to be true. I hate to be right in cases like this, but @ $700 a pop for these, maybe a sliver of wood to shim it isn't such a bad idea. That 1 came from a different forum. Oh well thanks for the suggestions, I wire buildings, run 1/4 mile drags, so I guess I'll figure this thing out. Thanks for the tips. D.
