Unhappy Condensation in new headlights (see pics, it's bad)

Hey all,

I recently (about three weeks ago) installed some DEPO LED angel eyes + xenon upgrade in my 03 X5 and after I got a few kinks worked out with the AE wiring, things have been peachy.

Then today I ran it through the car wash, getting it ready for its service appointment tomorrow, and I come out and my passenger side headlight is absolutely wrecked on the inside with condensation. Any idea why this is? Drivers side is fine. Should I pursue a warranty claim (if there even is one, I didn't check), or is there a simple fix, maybe a drainage tube or maybe it's not sealed right, etc.?

Any input is welcome, kinda freaking out here. I know there's some high voltage in there and I don't want to short anything out, or worse.
