Bit of a design flaw...!

My silver indicator bulbs for my rear clusters arrived today and when I removed the unit to fit them, I was quite surprised to see this!

It's obvious that it's all spray from the tyre that just splashes all up into here... Great design there! Just aswell most of the fecking thing is made of plastic!

Big difference though

TBH it's not an unusual design, keep costs down, eliminate arch covers. Shimples.

I've also taken to removing mine and cleaning, but won't again until summer now.
