Dust and watermarks inside Eagle Eyes LED tails normal?

I see some dust and watermarks inside my LED tails, especially in the white area. Anyone else have this problem? This is my 3rd set and they're all the same.

The stock OEMs don't have this problem.

I'll check mine but I've had them for almost 2 years now and I've never noticed anything.

I'll takes some pics of mine with the dirt inside. Like I said, all of my previous set also had this problem and I don't see anything wrong with the seals either, everything looks tight.

Checked mine, no dust or water and still crystal clear like brand new.

I think the red may actually be fading, not sure. It started at as pretty dark red and it doesn't seem as dark these days.

Slightly tint them and your fading issues will go bye bye. I know for some, tinting tails is not in their taste.
