You may have a leak (moisture) getting into the housing and that can severely shorten the life of bulbs. Buy good brand bulbs.

when you install the bulbs, keep your fingers off the glass part. Oil and dirt from your hands will shorten the lifespan of the bulb.

Yeah what he said! There is no reason for your fogs to keep going out unless you have a short somewhere with you connections. Even so, if you are not touching bulbs then you should be ok. Anytime i mess with bulbs from - house-car-electronics-etc.... I always where latex gloves.

The other reason could be cheap bulbs. I went through two sets of nokya bulbs on my Qx4 and I always where protection but they kept going out on me. When i switched to PIAAs I was running for about two years and no problem.
