Make sure you are using the correct replacement bulb.

If the bulbs you are using are made for 12 volts, I don't understand why. Check the voltage when the car is running. Maybe the alternator is putting out too high a voltage. Should be approx 14 volts.

btw - what you call the front dome light is called the map light.
