Bad Headlight Housing

I know, that’s what makes it strange.

I'd link to the earlier conversations about this if I knew how to find them. As I recall, we left it assuming that there is a discernable pattern within the glass that only shows up with sunlight coming directly in. But my issue seems to have spread such that I see specks further away from the sun than I used to. Also, I am seeing very short lines (not more than an inch long) within the glass, not just specks. This is a new artifact of attrition, or aging, or else I only noticed because I am scoping out the entire windshield to discover what's what.

Any way to capture an image of this?

That turned out better than I thought. In the last pic, you can even see some of the short lines in the glass I was referring to. I'm confident that those were not there a few years ago.

Good job capturing those on cam, not always easy to get focus, since it's so easy to focus on the background through the glass.


Hopefully these "optical inclusions" don't continue to grow

Lol, I seem really adept at getting the glass in focus without trying. I just let my natural "talent" dictate, and there you go. There's enough crap in the glass by now to capture the camera's full attention I reckon. (Notice how nice and clear the windshield is away from the glare, though.)
