There is a hidden screw below the light that you must remove. And why do you need ot clean the inside of something that has been sealed since it was made?

The heat of the lamps and the sun shining on them cuase a flim (for a lack of a better word) to form on the insides of our leanses. Cleaned they should almost look like glass, but in worst case issues look ot older 85ish mustangs/thunderbirds and look at their leanses and yours will be looking like than in another 5 year with out claening them. And not cleaning them will also eventually cause a "dry rot" of the leanse, you'll be able to push your finger straight through.

Yeah that third screw is right behind the bumper. To get off the lens you have to heat it up and pry it off, gently though becuase it can crack.
