At this time of year, if you were to turn you headlight off after it being warm in the housing, cooler, humid air would make its way into the housing and cause the condensation to build.

You need to degrease the inside of the lens when its split as it can attract and help cause moisture build up and possible internal lens stains too.

VERY ANNOYING STUFF THOUGH!

but just remember, a little condensation is normal at this time of year.
Thanks Josh, it disappeared later so things look good
Yup it is annoying all I can do is hope that it doesn't get worse.
