Easiest would be to give me the car and a blank check! Next best would be to remove the bulbs and squirt a hair drier in one hole and let it exit the other until the moisture is gone.

you could also just take the bulbs out and let the water evaporate on a day that isnt too humid.

You need to figure out how it got in there too... the older Q headlamps are very well sealed. Moisture is not a common problem until 1997.

My 1995 have numerous flaws (fissures) in the plastic housing of several light assemblies. Epoxy works well after clean and dry.
