Front Parkin lights

My Parking lights on the front of the bumper look dirty inside. How can you take these out to clean them?

get under your car and remove them, there are 2 screws holding the bulb housing in there.

EDIT:its probably a 7mm socket that you need, and be very carefull when installing not to tighten too much or you could break the plastic.

I filled the housing with Simple Green and hot water; I let it sit for awhile, then shook the heck out of it and went through the process again several times. Also polishing the lense itself will noticeably help (you might consider a search for more info on that).
