Rear window: best approach to cleaning?

A big hello!

Absolutely loving my Roadster.

Time came to clean the inside of the rear window.

Turned out to be a challenge to articulate my body the right way to accomplish this (seemingly) simple task.

I tried from seated position and reaching around: couldn't cover the whole surface.

Tried from standing outside with seat forward: couldn't reach everywhere.

Put knee in seat, faced rearward and had most success, but all along knew it was bad for the heated seat.

In the end...window probably looks worse despite my efforts :-(

Any tips for cleaning inside of rear window on a Roadster?

Many thanks...

I open the top part way and clean it from the outside of the car.
