are you making sure that the bulbs you install are clean? a clean bulb will last longer than one that isn't

but he said only the filament is burnt. if the bulb is dirty the bulb itself will pop. maybe there is too much current going to the bulbs. have you tried putting the stock ones back in?

It's the quality of the bulb. These are probably those $9.99 xenon krypton "HID" bulbs of of e-Bay.. They are crap and will only last a very short time. The low beam is blown because that is what is used the most and these low quality aftermarket bulbs run at higher wattages than stock, i.e., 80W for low beam. Get Sylvania Silverstar. They have a very respectable and pronounced White to them, with a hint of blue.
