Default Haze inside headlights

Was installing foglights and license plate bulbs last night (will summarize in separate thread) and noticed with the headlights on that the insides of both headlights have a haze or film on them. You can even see wipe marks on the driver's side lens.

Anyone else observed this with their Q5?

Yes, check this thread. I posted some pics. The haze it still there almost a year later but I was told "it's normal". They like to say that... a lot.

Dang - didn't notice I had that problem, now I'll have to go look

And if mine have a haze, I can gaurantee it's not from moisture - no rain in dfw in MONTHS !!!
