Mine did it once after I pressure washed the engine compartment. They dried up after a few days of warm weather. Without dry warm weather they may never clear up.

This happened to mine too. Just take out the light bulbs and drive around like that for a day. That will get all that moisture out of there.

There has been a few nice and warm days but the moisture is not giving up.
I can´t drive witout headlights for a day either, we have to have the headlights on even at daytime by law.
There has been modifications to the front, maybe it´s not proffessionally done?
Pictures taken with mobile phone, sorry if quality is not perfect.

I had a problem like that too with my 2001Ford Conversion Van. At the time it was still under warranty so the dealer replaced the headlight for free. You see moisture in there because you have a cracked or brokenseal. Take it back to the dealer if it is still under warranty and they should replace it.
