    Contacted the dealer and they had a look at it before telling me that, and I quote, 'we talked to our roadworthy guy and he said that moisture in the headlamp is permissible as long as there isn't water pooling at the bottom, its common with the euros'

    I agreed to a 1 year statutory warranty with these guys and am pretty set on having this fixed by them, any thoughts on how to go about it? Because currently, they are not at all keen to do anything about it.
    Water leaking into the headlights is not acceptable. It could cause corrosion or premature failure of bulbs. You should not take no for an answer, they should fix that under warranty.

    If they continue to give you grief, you could try taking it to Honda and seeing if they will fix it for free for you before you take the unscrupulous dealer to fair trading. But they will probably just throw a bag of desiccant in there to absorb the moisture, which is a temporary fix at best...
