If you don't have your fender liners in and have driven in the rain its also possible to have water in the fuse block which will cause all sorts of issues as well

The fact that they went out at the same time almost proves to me that it's not the bulbs. You'd have a better chance of getting struck by lightning while winning the powerball than the bulbs burning out simultaneously.

I agree with bmccann, it's got to be a fuse somewhere. Keep in mind that fuses blow for a reason though, you need to fix the underlying problem too (probably water related).
