Headlamp lens replacement

Firstly, what a great site. More jobs to do now I can see how to do them.

I have a 97 E36 convertible rhd. The rhs headlamp lens is full of moisture. How do I remove the lens please?

Many thanks
Phil

I have never had need to touch the headlights on either of my e36s, but on most cars, the way to solve moisture problems is:

1) Remove the headlight assembly.
2) Fill it with distilled water and see where the leak is.
3) Dry it out completely
4) Repair the leak with silicon sealant or weatherstrip seal or Pit Crew's Choice glue.
5) Reassemble.
