Default condensation in tail lights

hey fellow cl members. anyone know a way to get condensation out of the tail light? is this a common problem? My tail lights have no cracks in them but yet they still get condensation after washing the car or when it rains. its annoying.

so I managed to take off the tail lights. removed the bulbs with harness. I let the tail lights sit in the sun. that didn't even get all of the condensation out. so then I took a hair dryer to try to get rid of the condensation and no luck with that eitheir. Is there a way to take off the lens without cracking or damaging it? or would it be easier to just get another set of tails? I was planing on getting the aristo tail light set up anyways.

I baked mine at a low temp... Its weird how it takes on water. Same with mine, I'm going to try an fab a makeshift gasket between the light and the trunk.
