Are you sure it's the inside that needs cleaning? AFAIK you can't take that cover off. But here's a few threads on how to clean/refinish the outside...

***if there is damage/dirt on the inside, that would imply a damage to the seal...leading to a possible necessary replacement of the entire headlight unit....
