Default one headlight goes off sporadically

just got a set of hids, and the passenger side headlight goes off every once in awhile, when i hit a bump especially, but sometimes for no reason at all
when i flick the lights off and then on again itll stay on for awhile, and sometimes its good for the rest of the night, sometimes itll keep going off every 5 seconds, and i have to flick em of and on...
anyone know what could cause this?
