Outside, wash and glass cleaner.
Inside, dunno. How are they dirty? How old? Time for chucking them and buying some driving lights?

Sorry, you can't. At least I've never HEARD of someone so doing.

You could TRY placing them in a slow oven at 100 degrees for five, then ten, then fifteen minutes, see if the glue softens and the glass can be pulled away, like we do with the headlights.

But don't blame me if the whole lot just melts.

Also, you mUST NOT touch the reflector. You CANNOT clean it: the silvering is on the surface and just wipes off
