I really do agree that the most likely thing is that the lens were cheap or the bulbs were incorrect. None-the-less, the fact that lens aren't melting in a systematic way does not invalidate the stuck brake light switch theory either. Unless, of course, you are saying that BMW brake light switches stick on a lot. I would assume that sticking switches is a very rare event, so if that could cause a lens to melt, melted lenses would be even rarer. I do know by experience that it can happen, I also know that it would be very rare. It is more likely that the OP's problem is the lenses he used. Still, I think there are other possibilities.
