Default Head light question

One of my other cars is a 2004 Lexus rx 330 and there seems to be a leak somewhere in the front headlight which is letting moisture in. It condenses on the inside so there are a crap ton of little water droplets on the inside of the glass. Anyone have an idea how to fix this? Lexus said that it was not covered by my extended warranty and there is no way i am going to pay for a new one cus thats a grand i could put into the disco.
thanks for the help.

Probably has a crack somewhere...Pull off the assembly, dry it out and locate the crack. You can most likely seal it up with some epoxy. If it's a crack in one of the seals, use some RTV after you get it all dried out.

You can also check out eBay, CL or a junk yard if you have to get a new assembly. I'm sure the "stealership" name holds true for Lexus as it does for Rover.

First, you need to look and see if there is a drain pipe from your head light assembly that is plugged?
If not, then remove the light housing assembly, remove the light element and drain and dry out the light. Inspect it for a crack or bad seal and silicone it tight.
