remove the lightbulbs and try one of those keyboard vacuum thingys with the hose attatchment, never tried it but it may work.

Good luck.

eww i wouldnt try the glass cleaner..that chrome is VERY easy to strip off...well without taking the headlight apart try getting one of those cans of compressed air and shoot some quick blasts in there through the holes for the bulbs

or just try a regular vaccum.. my friend had some lint stuck in his and we just took out the bulb, and vaccumed it out.

Just be careful ANY time you're taking the headlight apart. I cleared my headlights and I'll tell you there are so many imperfections in the finish now. I stripped some of it with goo gone, I got the black silicone everywhere and there are fingerprints here and there too. If you just have some lint try the vacuum thing. I'd be weary of the compressed air, as it's got additives in the can that might linger in the headlight. Otherwise, it's definitely not worth taking your headlight apart for lint.

WHATEVER you do! Do not use goo gone! It ate my plastic lens up! I say go with the compressed air. WD40 cleans the chrome well. Just be patient with the chrome.

Take out your headlight and try the vacuum. You shouldn't need to take it apart.

When I cleared mine I stripped some of the crome off one headlight. dkfjadkjhjfgh I was think about taking them out and painting both lights the factory silver.
