Has any one had probelms with water penetrating into the headlights (VRX). After the rain we had (first in 50 days) a week ago both my headlights fogged up and had a small amont of water in them. This has never happened before, and it was unusual that it happened to both of them went at the same time.

Had a lot of rain here in SE QLD as well, but haven't had that problem. Might be worth getting in touch with Mitsu and seeing whether there is an easy fix?

if your car is still under warranty just take it back to the dealership and they should replace them under warranty,they recently replaced my TW`s headlights without hesitation

On one of the first washes I gave my car, I noticed condensation in both the driving/fog lamps - but it was a warm day and this soon evaported/went away. It has not happened again since, and never with the headlights.

Mate, definitely mention it to them at your next service. Any water or condensation in the headlights will corrode both the reflectors and your wiring loom pretty quickly.

Mine never suffered from that problem at all.

My drivers side headlight has had condensation inside it for about a week. If it is going to cause damage, I will get it fixed asap.
