Default Water in Headlights

I've heard that to dry out your healights and get the moisture out, you have to take the housing and lens apart. How do you do this? I've heard of baking in the oven, if so, how long? Thanks

hey i got the same problem ive just been to lazy. if you wait till all the moisture is out you can just seal it up with some silicone all around the edges of the two halves. If you stick in in the oven, all you will need is a few minutes a a few drivers to pry them apart. you might wanna paint it while your at it

oven heat, stick the head light in there for 10 minutes on bake at 250 degrees and you should be able to pry the sucker open and maker sure you have gloves cause it gets hot. clean the inside of it and then silicone it up.
