Dust in headlamp covers
I have a c200 with xenon headlights, I've found there are some dust inside headlamp cover. It's not a big deal but it doesn't look spotless to me.
Does anyone know if there is a leak? How can you remove the dust from there, can I get dealer to replace one for me?
Thanks!

Not sure if you are willing to try this:
In my old car- I had a spider climb into the headlight assembly when I was changing bulbs. I could not get the damn thing out to save my life. Long story short- I killed the spider by turning on the lights and frying it. And then used some Blue painter's tape on the end of a piece of plastic to clean out the dried up spider. This concept would probably also remove the dust particles.
Sounds crazy but it worked.
