Have you tried putting it in a bowl of rice?..

Special fried rice

silica gel packets usually help they worked on a mk4 for me

Might whip it off the car later and get a bit bowl of rice!

Mine does get it too but definately not to that extent.
I'd see if it dries out by itself before a trip to the dealers

Been away for a few days but definitely not showing any signs of drying out - almost looks worse!

Booked into JCT for them to sort.

I’ve not looked at behind a golf headlight but on my Vw Touareg I removed my air vent pipes which helped air flow.

Cheers, going to leave for the dealer as clearly an issue with the amount of water that's got in there.

Glad you got it sorted, sounds like it was reasonably painless!
