I would guess there sealed so would need to either cut the seal or melt it...
I've people online do "joey mods" to there headlights and part of the process is spliting them, part of the instructions is putting the lgiht in an oven to melt/soften the glue then prise apart.
There maybe a better way tho.

seems a bit of overkill to take it apart
just wash the headlamp in good hot soapy water swishing it about inside and leave it to soak
