i do believe that is very common with the headlights fogging up. mine do it but it's only when it rains or it's moist out.

Headlights fogging up is normal...

There's been a memo and a discussion about it already. Its a new technique used by NISSAN to let more air flow in. So that it can cool the HID lights down more. Its suppose to condensate the lens.

I hope that answer your question.

Doesn't that usually cause the lens to turn a yellowish color?
