Emira Condensation in Headlamps

[nsmith27]

Has anyone experienced the headlamps in their Lotus Emira, or other Lotus headlamps condensating on the insides of the lenses towards the front of the lamps?

Yes, very occasionally. It clears up after a drive or when the sun comes out.

Mine also do this, not always just sometimes

Mine do this too. Usually when in the sun.

My Elise did this all the time, and what I'd do is put in a large package of dessicant in the housing, out of sight. It lasts a few months, then you microwave it to release the water and put it back in. Maybe there's room for a packet of it in the Emira headlights

Apparently it’s normal and will dissipate according to the service guy at my dealership when I raised the subject, and he’s correct mine clears every time

Thanks for your feedback
Seems odd to me though to occur on a sealed unit and may lead to water mark stains on the inside.
I have another new car with matrix headlights and this doesn’t have this issue.
