Default Moisture in Headlamps

Good morning,

I took my vette out on Saturday night and it was raining. On sunday I went into the garage and both head lamps were fogged up. I have been driving the car with the ligts on and it is clearing them up but after the car is sitting for a while they fog again. Anyone have any advise on who the fix this. Thank you for your help.

What year is it? If it within the first three years of being sold it has a bumper to bumper warranty....

if it is condensation, it's normal. I believe there's even a write up in the owner's manual. also, if you look carefully at the headlights (I haven't) there's supposed to be some moisture holes toward the bottom. while the lens is sealed to the body, the entire unit is not vacuum sealed.
