Miggs,
As you are obviously desperate, I'll see what I can come up with, firstly, it's possible that the condensation is as a result of a leak, this leak 'might' be the light cluster itself, where the light is fitted there should be a bead of silicone which creates a seal, if this is leaking, not only will you have a boot fulll of water, but if some of the water mad it's way into the light, when the bulb gets warm, this might then cauuse the condensation. Take a look in the spare wheel hole to see if it's got water in it.
If it has, then take the light clusters off, and reseal them with a bigger bead of silicone, if there is no water in the boot, when we get a warm day, take the bulbs out of the lights, and let them dry out, you could always warm them with a hair dryer if we don't get a dry day!!
All this might help, but I might just be talking out of my ****!
