Condensation in headlamp

Condensation in headlamp
Hey Guys... quick question...
Have an Evo VII and noticed tonight after a lil drive that the right side headlamp has quite a bit od condensation in it. I was surprised as water doesn't leak into it when I wash the car or if rain is pouring....
I can't figure it out... is there a vent or something I can find to help ?

Ok believe it or not, it does it at night, when the place gets cooler. By morning it's all fogged up. (bloody hell)
Well I took it down and resealed it... first with silicone, then opened it and did it over after seeing the condensation reappear.
But it's still doing it (aaargh!)
I'm resorting to buying a new headlamp if it continues, but there was one thing I noticed...
The light carries two vent tubes on it... one n the middle and one in the corner where the park light goes into...
They were slightly cracked around the rubber itself... and also were a little loose...
Could this be the "smoking gun"?
