Default Road Glide Headlite Cover

How do you remove the headlite cover to clean the inside? Is there a way to do it without taking off the fairing?

Thanks Everyone

Yes use a nylon stick and Gently pry each top corner down until you get it to pop off. Go easy there are tabs that can break if you are rough on it. Make sure it is a little warm as in the sun on it for a bit. I don't do mine in the winter because of the cold and I only have a carport. Use gentle pressure and go slow and no issues.

I use a small head screwdriver that I covered with duct tape. I covered only the head, works all the time no problems.
Make sure the cover is replaced the correctly and check that it is snapped in and secure before you take it for a ride or it will fall out.
