Default Cleaning after hydraulic leak

Is there any way to get the green hydraulic fluid out of the lights on the overhead console?

Remove the overhead fixture and wipe it clean w/ a grease cutter like 409 or Simple Green. Instructions on removing fixture are in Rearview Mirror Tech page. Since you have to pull the windshield header to install new lines, when it is open, insure fluid has not seeped into that space.

Done all of that already. The issue is in the lens area of the lights. I don't see a way to remove the light itself to clean out the light itself.
