Default clean the inside of headlights (new idea)

I found this under a youtube video as a possible solutuion for cleaning the inside of your headlights watch the video and read the the idea below
they say mercedes has the kit but very expensive or amazon sells one for $12

Why not make your own kit? Fold a couple ounces of tiny steel nuts, washers, or non-jagged pieces of steel inside a terrycloth. Glue or stitch this closed - whatever is fastest. That's the inside piece used as the wiper pad. Outside, tuck a 1/4" x 1" rounded neodymium magnet (Graingers, 14.5 lb pull strength for $5.72) inside a terrycloth. Again, seal this by choice. For the "secret cleaning agent" simply use isopropyl alcohol 91% solution 32-oz (Walmart, $2.58). Walmart also has a 100% cotton 12-pack of terrycloths for $7.62. Every darn video online shows someone cleaning the outside when many times the culprit is the gunk inside the lens that causes this unsightly clouding.
