whats that on headlight?
I attached a pic, its exactly the same shape and location on both L and R side. it seem internal and does not wipe off, is that just normal wear due to LED lights? can that be fixed and is it part of warranty?

Looks like scratches and stuff from road debris.

I would assume that the unit is sealed somewhat in which case would be a warranty repair. There doesn't seem to be an easy way to get at cleaning it that I can see
