Default Odyssey headlights (2003)?

I'm looking at buying a 2003 Odyssey. The driver-side headlight has some moisture in it, I think from a previous accident. My question is, is this moisture a big deal? Is there any kind of safety hazard here, particularly revolving around (but not limited to) the water/electricity thing? And if I were to replace the headlight, how difficult / expensive would that be?

if you dont replace the headlight the bulb will burn out constantly especially when the moisture becomes excessive. call a honda dealer, it should cost around 400-500 because the front bumper must be removed to access the houding

In some states the vehicle will not pass state inspection with moisture in the headlamp assembly
