Yes, limited access.

Don't damage your boots.

you can go through the fenders too. I have an air blower attachment for the compressor that has a small tube that fits between the grates on the cowl and blow like hell.

I think you get better access by removing the heater box and vents ....

If you look waaaay up in the upper corner of the fenderwell, after you remove the inner plastic fender, you will find an opening that you can stick a small diameter vacuum hose into.
