Xenon Help! Its driving me Crazy!

I have xenon headlights and Fogs on my 05 G35 coupe.
The Passenger Headlight gets stuck in the Blue zone after 1 month of installing a new bulb.

What I mean when i say "blue zone" (When I first switch my lights on they look very blue, then they fade out to a bright white look).

Now its always the passenger headlight, The fog light is perfect and so is the drives side.
I have tried 3 different Brands of Xenon bulbs. At the moment I am using 6000K
Do you guys think is the internal wires the light housing, Bulbs?

Thanks in advance for the help

It sounds like a possible power issue to me. Either too much or too little voltage is trashing the bulb over time.

its hard to believe it could happen to 2 different bulbs from 2 different brands. When u say power issue do u mean the fuse or something else. Im going to try changing that tomorrow and see what happens.

No, not a fuse. +1 on the ballast idea. There has to be something wrong electronically to toast your bulbs that fast.
