Detailing 2001 Lincoln Contental

This year, for the first time, there is an accumulation of dead bugs at the very back of the rear window behind the speaker. I have tried a wide variety of things to try to remove them, but the space is so narrow I'm stumped. Can the rear speaker be removed or is there a better way to handle this?

Shop Vac offers a mini tool kit for about $8.00. You can find it at Lowes and probably Wal-mart. It fits many vacuums. Flexible crevice tools are available from vacuum cleaner stores. If that won't do the trick, you might try double-stick tape on a paint stirrer or dowel rod. Pros can blast the bugs out with compressed air for you too. Less effective but worth a try, would be a compressed air can sold for dusting computer keyboards ( found at office supply stores etc. )
Are you sure you mean the 'rear speaker' and not the center brake light assembly ?
Most of those lights can be removed by going in through the trunk and disconnecting clips, a wire connector and any screws or bolts you find.
