Default Headlight problem

Strange thing happening tonight.

Headlights were on dipped, but the high beam was flickering on & off in the two outer (xenon) lamps.

There is a sidelight bulb out on the NS high beam lamp, but that's the only other issue I can see. Any thoughts or suggestions? A new set of lamps is probably going to be the end of this great but frustrating car.

TIA

edit: should just add, it's a 2002 ZT 190

Are they OE xenon lamps or standard projectors with aftermarket HID burners fitted?
