Try pouring some Coke in there (it will disintegrate the rust and corrosion - yeah, we drink this stuff!) and letting it sit for an hour or two, then wash it out with soap and water. If that doesn't do it, try spraying in some WD-40 and jiggling it out with a screwdriver. Good luck!
Edit: Forgot to add that you should of course remove the lense cap and lightbulb/holder before doing this :)
