There are vents in the lights. On a damp day I have condensation in both. After some time it clears out. I was worried about it also, but in the manual it states this is normal.

I have some reside on my light internally that can be seen on the glass. Is there a way to get into the light structure to clean out the inner contents?

This is unfortunately normal.. The vehicle's manual verifies it.
You can stick a couple of silica packets into a inconspicuous location inside the headlights and it will completely prevent any condensation. This trick have always worked for me.. |

Thanks a lot, guys!
I was very worried about that. The only thing that concerns me now is why it is only in the left one? If I want to answer myself, I'll gamble it happened in the manual washing I went to yesterday. The guy, probably washed the left light and when he saw what he did, he didn't try the same on the right one. |

Yeah it happens for me as well on both front headlights, especially when I wash the car.
