Default Condensation in daylighters

Just finished washing the Jeep and noticed some condensation accumulating on the inside of one of my daylighters lens. I assume I can just take the lens off and wipe it out right? Any idea how to keep it from happening again ( other than stop washing it. LOL)

I had the same issue with one of my KC lights. I contacted KC and they sent me a new seal. But that didn't fix the problem either. I disassembled the fixture. Cleaned the seal. Applied a little silicon spray to the seal and reassembled. That seemed to help. But didn't stop the water completely. I've had the fixtures for several years now. I hardly ever see the condensation anymore.

Thanks, I guess I'll skip the calling KC if their fix doesn't really help.
