Cleaning the inside of DOT headlights

[frank j. bauer]

after cleaning, you'll want to get the moisture out before you start 
using them again.
if the humidity is low enough - a day in direct sunlight might be enough 
to do the job.
otherwise you might consider some time in the oven at a low temperature 
- maybe 250F?
i tried a blow drier way back when and it was almost futile.
a shop vac exhaust might move enough air to do it...
