Foggy headlight lens

I hit a deer about two years ago and long story short, I had one of my headlights replaced. Now the original one has a fog inside it and the new one is crystal clear. Anyone know how to get rid of the fog inside the lens? Is there an easy way to clean the inside of the lens? Maybe take it off?

Thanks in advance.

The problem is that the headlight is supposed to be a sealed system. Your's has lost its seal and is allowing moisture to condense inside. If it isn't cracked because of a rock or something like that, MINI might replace it for you under warranty.
