You can dry the inside of the lights and housings and lots of other things, if you have a tank-type vacuum cleaner. Hook the hose to the air discharge. The air is drawn over the motor and gets quite warm. I use it all the time for drying parts and even the engine compartment on my '90 Vanagon after hosing it down with hot water. Jerry
