and it is normal if you use a high pressure wash. There is a vent hole that allow the heat generated from the lights to escape, and that heat also should burn off any moisture that may have entered due to high humidity and temperature changes, or presure wash. It should burn off quickly, and it should not be chronic. If it is chronic, you have a problem, unless the other answer is to not spray high pressure water on the lights.

I have a garage kept 97 XK8, and do not have a problem, although they have fogged a couple of times.
