When i got my celica the driver side inside headlight had some water in it and the bulb is out. I replaced the bulb but i wanted to take the headlight out and clean it. Cant figure out how to take it apart, seems like you have to do alot more work just to get this out. Does anybody have some instructions on how this is done. Would be appreciated

Couple of things:
1. The OP says he wants to clean it. That means he's got more than dust in there  I'm betting on stains.2. A few drops of water will evaporate OK. If the thing is half full of water, it'll be a loooong time before it dries by itself, even if you leave the bulb out. Take the cap off a bottle and see how long it takes for the water to go down an inch by evaporation. Especially since he's in CT where it's a bit cold right now... Edit: And bottles have caps so you don't spill them or get flies in them  By the time you evaporate a bottle of drinking water it'll be past it's expiration date
