I was able to reach into the lens through the bulb hole with an acid brush and swirl around some liquid plastic cleaner and remove _all_ the spooge and Diesel Smoot but the lens had cracks that pi$$ed me off and then the paint shop broke the clips so I tossed out both taillight lenses and bought new ones ~ good guy price was : $200.00 EACH (! GASP !) .
Good thing SWMBO likes the car as I've put waaayyy too much Lolly into it and if I touch it , I'll make it into my Shop Truck and ruin it...
I'd give cleaning yours another shot , use Meguiar's # 40 Plastic Cleaner , it's _amazing_ stuff .
