Headlight condensation?

[KyL3]

Noticed some condensation in my headlights tonight not alot but im worried it will get worse. Changed my bulbs the weekend but checked the rubber seals they seem tightly fitted. Any ideas?

It's just this time of year cold weather plus warm headlights, if it's only light condensation it will burn off after a short time with headlights on.

Yeah mate I had this a few weekends ago. I opened the covers and pointed a hair dryer on a warmish setting and dried it for 30 mins, replaced the rubber covers and it hasn't come back. If you don't own a hair dryer you can cover the headlights in tinfoil and keep your main beams on for a while to evaporate it that way.

Nice one! Seems to have dried out itself already. I'll keep an eye on it see if it comes back, fingers crossed it won't.
