I would swap 'bulbs' side to side to see if the fault follows.
Then swap ignitors?

Thanks I'll give that a shot first. Is there any problems removing either of those with the bumper on?

Turns out the passenger headlight adjuster was bad causing that side to look dimmer because it was drooped down. Got it fixed with the old screw through the headlight trick. Thanks to the forum for answers.
