    The right side headlights of our 2009 Prius, uses hid bulb, is going out after 5 minutes of turning the car on. Obviously the light bulb is either ok, is not ok or a cable is loose. It seems all very strange. Any ideas what is happening? TIA!!

    No not obviously OK. That's one of many failure modes of a HID bulb.
