Default Headlight lens cleaning

The passenger headlight is getting cloudy on the inside. Any reccomendations on how to get to the inside of the lens to clean it? Any way to take the lens off without removing the whole assembly? Thanks.

I think you have to remove the light assembly to get the clips off to remove the glass.

You have to remove the headlight by unscrewing it from the inside (open hood). I have clouding problem as well. It may need simple cleaning. However, if the glass is cracked, you may need to replace the entire headlight.

Another note You have to loosen most of the front bumper cover to remove the headlight assembly.
