Why not try using a blow dryer on low setting - blow air in thru the 
hole by removing the lamp?  All you need to do is move the moisture 
out!  I don't think the US lights come apart, altho the Euro-lights do.  
IF you feel compelled to (and can) take them apart and clean them, 
DO NOT use ANY cleaning solutions; they can eradicate the 
reflective material in the lights.
