1. use of high beams 2. if I do not use the high beams the low beam lights never fail 6 month trial just finished. 3. replaced the headlight failure relay as this is what my mechanic does for all his customers with no satisfactory results. When using highbeams replacing 6 bulbs every six months I have replaced 14 bulbs since I bought the car last Jan. 09 my wife's 2004 Saab 9-3 has the same problem.
