Steamed up windows, normal?

I get this on my mk1 leon, real pita sometimes. Its due for a service so hoping changing the pollen filter may sort it, going to check see any seals are torn as well.
 
Ah this happens to me now, my friends were messing with the roof panel, christ what do you call it?

Anyway they didn't close properly so it was at an angle, when it rained it collected on the roof and dripped into the passenger footwell, it was like a swimming pool.
Got most of it out but it's still a bit damp and I have condensation problems.

When people say use a dehumidifer, um...they're all too big to put in a car.
I have one, but it's for a room. I could put it in the boot (closed) I guess and stick the nozzle out a window with a power extension and leave it on a sat afternoon? O_o

Oh, /me wishes he had a new car for once ;)

Get a butter pot or something, stick holes in the lid and fill it with the silica type cat litter and leave under a seat. Thats a easy way to soak up moisture in the air.
 
If you've had your screen replaced, then they did a pants job and didn't seal it properly. Complain about it and get it redone/resealed. They probably didn't use an original seal on the car.

Other than that... check the sunroof (it may be leaking under the lining), and check the drain holes are clear in the sunroof (if you have any on your car).

Turn the vents to recirculate. Check that pollen filter out as that seems very car specific.
