The headlamp units are not sealed, some dampness does get in during transport. From new some dealers advice you to run for a couple of hours with your lights on, after that normal ventilation should keep it clear.

Michael,
Good advice. Also, if that doesn't work, check to ensure that the small openings at the rear of the lamp housing are not blocked up....

Mine tend to only partially fog now if there's a rapid change in temperature or humidity (as in if a storm blows through for a while)--
