Default Do you get condensation in your headlights?

On rainy days I seem to be getting condensation on the INSIDE of the headlight lens....is this normal or a problem I should bring up when my Z goes to Nissan on monday?

mine stopped doing that after a month of owning it... might be a bad seal if it persists for a long time.

Thumbs up

mine dried up but left a residue. I took it to the dealer. They're ordering parts for replacement.

Not sure if any of you guys are interested, but we also repair defective headlamps that have condensation problems. We take care of this when customers send in their headlamps for the black-housing/LED headlamp conversion.

Not a solution, but something to think about if you know you want to do the conversion and dont want to hassle with the dealer getting you a replacement set of headlamps. We use OEM rubber sealant.

I have this problem with the residue, did the deal fix the problem? Can't believe that more people don't have this issue??
