To get it out, you can unscrew the palm-sized cap on the back of the headlight. Then turn the base of the light bulb. You can pull the light bulb out and let the moisture vent for a while. As for prevention, I'm no help.

haha the 95-96 headlights are horrible. They fog, get scratched easily, etc.... I have this headlight that water is getting in somehow. I took it off and tried to seal it with aquarium sealant (it's silicone based) and it helped a little. But water is getting in some how. So try and take it off and using aquarium sealant on the parts where the clear part is connected to the backing.

i have the same problem on my 97 .. it started happening when i took off the front end .. and as for a quick fix .. i use a leaf blower to dry it out .. but once moisture is in there its near impossible to get it out ...
