Take them out, "open" them up as much as possible (take bulbs out), and blow hot air in them with a heat gun or blow dryer. That will evaporate the water and most will leave the tail light housing through the bulb hole.

You could also *warm* them in an oven and the water will evaporate and go out.

I have also heard of people putting those little packets that you find in ceral and stuff to keep the moisture out in there and that will help eliminate some of the moisture.

What packets in cereal? Do you mean silica gel? Those would work but I'd rather not have one in my housing. I have never had a light form condensation anyways.
