I don't think this can realistically be done, but I'm curious whether anyone has tried it.

Anything can be done!
youll need to melt the lens frame apart from the light housing since they are bonded together. Then you can clean it and either plastic weld it or silicone seal it back together.

People have cleaned them with a solution of IPA (isopropyl alcohol), agitating, draining and letting dry.
