I have that problem in my driver side headlamp assembly. Its probably a seal that is cracked or warm air is coming through the weatherstop of the bulb. Its not enough moisture to cause damage. Its probably also not enough to freeze. Worst case scenario, there will be a bit of frost.

I think its a touch and go problem. Since I changed my front lamps, no more moisture in there, I bet the seal was not properly shut, same case with you Hoov, check all the weatherseals back there.

Isn't that right (driver side) lamp a PITA?...holy, you have to move the airbox to change the bulb. I can appreicate someone getting so frustrated and no "rebooting' the lamp and allowing condensation. I had cuts all over me when I was doing that :?
