Before I do anything that might damage them, how do I clean the chrome on the inside of the front turn signals and also the rear tail lights?

I was going to use dish soap and water, but thought I might ask if there was a better way. They are dirty and there are a few spots where the chrome is bubbling/chipping, but it's not bad.

Can I polish them with anything?
