      Bad thing about plastic parts, they are often melted together, sometimes they are glued, and wuite shabby workmanship many times. All you can do is take them out, empty them, see if you can find where they are getting the moisture from and try to re-seal them.
      This can often be done with a little rtd (silicone) if you are neat enough with it, you can make it invisible. Also check the seal where the bulbs go into the back of the lense. That is often the cuplret.

      Good luck with it..

      I had a problem the first day I had my car with condensation in the head lamps. The dealer fixed it right away and haven't had a problem since

      No they never told me why it happened they just had a company come and reseal both headlights and that was it. I also told them if it happened again they were replacing them completely. My dad works at the dealership where I bought my car and he told me it is a common problem with cars.
