Unhappy Head light bulbs too hot. Burning holes in headlamps

I've never had head light bulbs do this before.
When I bought my car one main head light bulb was burned out.
I replaced them with some hella h7 blue bulbs. I don't remember the exact type but I do recall them being off road only. But I've used off road bulbs before without issue..until now.

At first I thought I was getting fungi or something on the inside of the headlamp. Then after close inspection I noticed it was burnt from the inside out and on lamp has a small hole in it now.

I'm now going to have to buy 2 new headlamps unless I can find some used..not to mention new headlight bulbs that won't burn the plastic.

Any suggestions? Also is there any danger in the lamps until I can buy another set?

TIA
