Removing debris from inside back window under light.

Tiny flies and dust have accumulated under the back window light fitment, it is impossible to get in there to remove it. The detail shop has not succeeded trying to blow it out. Any ideas please on how to remove this debris? It seems like a bad design fault.

Yes, the third brake light, and no, it can't be removed for cleaning, (at least I don't know how to remove it). The fitment around the light fits so snugly up to the window it is impossible to even get a thin vacuum attachment in there.

there has to be away to change the bulb if there is then I'm sure the assembly will come out and you can vac and clean it up.

see if you can get a dealer or someone to give you the install instructions.

OK thanks, I am taking it to the Mercedes dealership tomorrow, I will ask what they do to change the bulb. Good idea never thought of that, thanks again.
