Drivers side headlight - condensation?

Somehow at some point water had gotten into my headlight assembly. It condenses and foggs up the headlight - - looks awful to me although the headlight still works fine.
I've noticed that on a few other Ventures - same side....anyone else have this?
A replacement from GM is outragous...upwards of $140...I've seen them on Ebay for about $60-80, anyone try these? Do they look OK?

thx

I have a 2000 Venture and water gets into the headlight too. Fills so bad I have to disassemble the headlight area and drain the water out after a few rain showers. Headlight works fine though, I ain't fixin what ain't broken.

P.S.

Does your venture loose oil somehow, I don't know where my oil is going, clean coolant, no leaks, exhaust ok. I have to add a quart like every 2 weeks.

my driverside did that....heres what i did...

1/8" drill bit. Drilled hole in bottom most spot on the headlight. Still gets water in it, but now it drains out!

If those are sealed head lights I would dry it out then where the lense is press on to the back use goop, glue or some type of sealent.
