Stick it in ur oven @ 325 degrees (upside down) w/ the cover in the back removed for 10 mins. Heat makes any condensation rise and escape from the back of the headlight. Afterward, take it out and push the housing back together as hard as u can (u might need gloves for this otherwise ure gonna toast ur hands) You have 5 mins before the silicone starts to harden again.

Another reason: Sometimes w/ old housing 03/04's, they get condensation cuz the plastics go bad after awhile. This is pretty common.
