Cleaning Sky Light

We recently purchased a 2016 Sport 22' and it has a sky light. on the interior you can slide the shade cover back and clean the plastic film but you cant get to the sky light. On the roof It looks like it's installed over the opening and just sealed on the underside with some type of caulking. There are screw holes on all four sides but no screws. If I gently pry on it, it feels like it might just come off but I'm not confident that it won't break. Anyone have any experience with getting this sky light cover off so that it can be cleaned?

I'm giving this post a bump in hopes that someone might reply with an answer.

I'm facing the same dilemma on my 2020 25FBT. There is cleaning to be done on the inside, sealed up surfaces of the two skylight lenses, but I don't feel confident prying the top/outside one up.

I had no luck searching the forums for an answer.

Here’s the solution. Check out this thread. We installed maxims and have been very pleased. https://www.airforums.com/forums/f45...hts-53517.html

If Airstream in still installing the same skylight that my trailer came with, you cant clean anything but the part you look up and can touch and the dome outside. The dome and the flat piece inside are sealed together into on unit.
