So after one year of running DDM bulbs, the passenger side light started to go out intermittently (but would turn on sometimes when switching the switch). It turns out the igniter on that side burnt up along with the part of the bulb it touches.
So i bought a new igniter for the pass. side (the driver side was good) and some expensive OSRAM D2S CBI bulbs this time. Installing the pass side igniter with the headlight assembly in the car was not fun.
I don't want to spend more money and effort again to do this so my main concern now is the igniter installation (hmm yea safety too).
I pushed the igniter in and turned it until it was "locked" and would not turn anymore. It seemed like that was the only way to get it on correctly (ie. not loose). But I have read some threads about people installing it "crooked" or misalligned. So far my lights are working correctly now.
