Did you do anything to reseal the headlight? Or is it still resulting in condensation?

It got relegated to a nice weather/weekend car so I never addressed it.

You could bake them and reseal with this kit https://www.bavgruppedesign.com/prod...ng-mk5tz-gabyb

Just make sure you can return both. Some sellers won't accept returns on electrical items.

did you check fuses

Yes sir.

Good. The other day I had a door lock issue and was certain I was about to have to buy an FRM and it turned out to be a 0.05$ 15a fuse and Kt felt like I found a $200 bill in my glovebox

Can clearly see the water penetration.

Left one was the worst.

Got my headlights back after changing the ballast

BUT

Got adaptive headlight warning the first two time I started and then no warning the next 2 time.

Hopefully, that doesn't come back again.

UPDATE - That adaptive headlight error is intermittent. On my 10 mins drive to office, it came and went 3 times. Any suggestions?

Most likely corrosion on the pins/contacts. Should have cleaned it while you were there. Make sure everything is plugged in.
