Default HEADLAMP CONDENSATION

Hi guyz,
I need an opinion on headlamp condensation build up.
Since i bought my car '03 yellow spa, my head light start to have condesation inside the glass dome. I took it to the dealer and have the lamp replace, and again start to notice another condensation. Does anyone have this problem?
This is a new piece of and I start to get piss. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Let me know, thanx.

Did you buy the car new/used?
If used, did the previous owner clear the corners?
They might not have resealed the housing properly.

take the head light housings out,
take out the bulbs,
get a hair drier,
and blow the wind through the holes.



after dring up the inside of the light housing,
get a good silicon sealant from home depot
and re-seal the housing.
