Condensation-water in my daytime running lights, normal?

As long as it's dry and non-corrosive.

Bottled Nitrogen or any inert gas will work very well. Even filtered, dry air (paint gun supply) does a good job.

It's just kind of weird for having a 2014 with humidity in the lights.

I had that in my previous car after opening up the headlights. Having said that though, there's nothing stopping air from getting in, the lights had drainage tube things so it was probably just coincidence.

I'll keep an eye on mine, I also have a 2014 370Z, albeit mine is a daily. I haven't noticed condensation there.

Just took my car out for another drive and there's more condensation in the lights.

So long as there is no drips of water then it is fine. This is what most manufacturers go by for warranty work. If it has droplets of water then change it
