I've seen stuff like this before, in a BMW's tail light. Vacuum it out?

I've got a dead bug in the area of my rear break light. It's been there since I bought the car. I can't get to it because of the break light being right on the rear window. When I got my windows tinted the guy tried to get it out but had no luck.

I guess the bug stays, he's like part of the family now.

Take a straw and duct tape it to a vacuum cleaner and get it out. I'd strongly recommend the vacuum cleaner step. LOL
Good luck.
