Really??
NO! There is a TSB for internal condensation (TSB: 13-Jan-05 - 08-002-05 - Lighting - Condensation in Headlamps). They'll rock and sock you for fixing it, but the repair kit is $23 and have them print off the repair guide. It's very easy to do. Getting rid of the moisture is the only issue. The guide says to hook the car up to a battery charger and turn on the headlights to drive it out-warm air blowing through it works just as well.
Do it yourself and save!
As for the leak being "Normal""
TSB: 4-May-04 - 23-014-04 - Body - Wind Noise From Top of Door
TSB: 28-Jan-05 - 23-004-05 - Body - Window Glass Misaligned and or Contacts Roof
I have a little leak at the top-front edge of the drivers window. But I only see it when I direct a hard spray of water (garden hose) while washing it. The windows are adjustable-may fix it, maybe not. You can try to add a little sliver of foam behind the gasket where it leaks. It will take very little-too much and it might leak on either side of where it leaks now.
Just an old-timers trick to fix this type of problem.
