Well, I had a play about with a spare headlight and it appears to my unprofessional eye that they aren’t really sealed at all. There is no ‘goo’ on my glass and the rubber ‘seals’ don’t look like they’d prevent water ingress. And, as I use a pressure washer to clean my car, and I’ve not noticed this issue before, I did wonder where the water/condensation had come from.

But, whatever the cause or source of the water, it’s gone away of its own accord!
