Default Condensation in the Headlamp!?

This has never happened before, but yesterday I washed my Black 2000 S2K and when I was finished I noticed that the driver's side headlamp was completely fogged up on the inside. Obviously moisture got in there somehow. Maybe I am really picky, but this looks terrible! It never left the headlamp, its the day after now and the condensation is still in there.

How do I get it out??

the headlamp body needs to be removed and resealed (heated, taken apart and put back together).
just like when you clear the lenses- bumper has to be removed, etc....

the head lamps should not be getting any moisture in them- when they do that means they are not fully sealed.

Yeah, you're right, I do need to fix my avatar. I'm actually in Toronto, Ontario, so I'm not even in the US.

You wouldn't happen to know of any Toronto area places that could do this??
