Thumbs up Internal Access to Headlights

I am about ready to remove the headlight assemblies in an effort to remove the film on the internal surface of the lenses. I plan on using the cloth covered magnet cleaning technique and was wondering if there is an opening to access the inside of the lens. It looks like there's no access through the high and low beam light enclosures. If there is access somewhere I might be able to do the cleaning without removing the headlights.
Thanks

The small marker light in the upper corner is open. Use methanol for cleaning solution.

Thanks for the answer. I am assuming using methanol requires removing the light assembly.

That's how it is usually done. But if your going to try the magnet method use the methanol on your wiping pad and see how it goes. Won't hurt to try.
