Default Cleaning windshield behind 12" screen

My question isn't necessarily how to clean the glass to get a nice streak free, no smudge look (although that input is welcome too), but how do you position your body/arm to reach the entire windshield when cleaning it? It seems as though no matter how and where I try to position my body, my hands aren't able to easily reach the lower portion of the windshield that is directly behind the 12" nav screen to do a really good job of cleaning it.

Is this a just practice it enough type of task and it will become easier or have any of you found how to easily do this? Do you use any type of cleaning extension tool to help reach that area? If so, what?

Appreciate the input.

I have to do the windshield in halves. No way to reach the whole thing without changing seats.

I hate to do the inside of the windshield but it really is required, especially when the VOCs are still coming out of the new seats and other hardware. After about 6 months it seems to stay clean longer.
