Got the same problem

Thinking about taking it all apart and giving it a good sanding down and cleaning. No idea on the exact procedures and materials needed however

dw taking it all out nd sanding is easy but i got no idea about condensation

if u have a look theres some info on takeing the cluster out(pretty much unscrew 1 screw at the front nd push it out from behind)
nd i know theres a topic on polishing lenses

I had the same, nightmare to try and get dry, even though it does have vents in the rear which are meant to keep it from steaming up. I ended up drillling a small hole underneath and facing backwards which seems to have done the trick and allowed it to clear.

(And thats in Scotland, famous for its not-very-dryness!)

Storm is right...
I had disame problem for a long time
grab a power drill and small drill bit (note the smaller the bit is the more holes eg 4 you may need to do)
Step 2- aim at the lowest point where water can drain and slowly drill untill you get pass the plastic. In and out.
Step 3 - all fixed.
