Headlight Condensation Fix?

Not sure if this is in the correct thread but does anyone have any ideas for getting rid of headlight condensation for the lower headlights on an '86 camaro? I know you have to take the lights off and dry them out but does anyone have any pics on how to take them off properly? or how to get to them?

here's a pic.

Re: Headlight Condensation Fix?

Just pull the bulb/socket out on a warm dry day and leave it out until all the water evaporates out the hole. Shouldnt need to remove them. Snake a paper towel in to suck up some of the water to speed it up if theres a lot.
