Tail light condensation / gasket info?

So, I've got the tail light condensation (left assembly), I pulled it out today and tried the hair drier thing, but aside from blowing a circuit breaker in my house, it didn't seem to do much good. I could get it to evaporate, but it condensed back when I took the drier off.

I was considering doing the drilling thing, but I'm not sure I'm comfortable drilling the plastic.

What I'm wondering is: how do you take the red plastic part off from the black assembly? There are little clips, but I can't figure out a way to release them / get the red part off.

Also, does somebody know the part number for the replacement gasket? The one I'm looking for is the one that I assume is enclosed in the red plastic part (the gasket that is immediately accessible when you pull the assembly is in good shape).

Any help.. please?

Sith, to my knowledge, there's no way of taking the red apart from the black. If so, I'd surely heard of it by now. There is also no part number for a gasket between the red and the black. Only the "most readily accessable" gasket. I replaced both of mine and the condensation has gone (even though the others looked "in good shape.") Part #84940PA000 for both sides.
