Ended up replacing the lens, you may consider doing that also if you keep buy bulbs. Sounds liike to me mositure is getting in it.
Make sure the bulbs are actually burned out, too. Put them in and out a couple times and see if they relight - if they do, it is a connection problem. Reinstall them with a little bit of dilectric (sp?) grease.

I had the same problem, corrosion 
I used some 220 grit sandpaper to clean up the sockets and bulb wires then sprayed them with electronic connection cleaner let them dry and added the grease make sure to coat the bulbs wires on the bottom well as they corrode easily. That was over a year ago with leaky lenses.
On a different set on a diffrent car I drilled 2 small holes on the top of the back to let them "breathe" since moisture could get out it didn’t build up, fog up or rust anymore.
The best would be buy new lenses at $30 a piece and sockets at around $10 then get a couple of heavy duty or Led bulbs for $5-25 depending on what you find, however also the most expensive.
Good luck either way
