Take the lights of the car & either stick them in an airing cuboard or use a hair drier. The problem will probably come back, so might be worth checking the seal between the lights & bodywork.

Once you have dried them you need to re seal them with silicone sealer. Or buy a ne set that has been pressure tested?

Silicone sealer sounds like a good idea, how much does it go for at a local retailer?
