Would I be ok with installing this ecode with this type of damage?

Long story short, here is a replacement light I have to put on my car. Is this going to give me any problems in the long run? Notice the crack.

Default you should be okay, since the whole housing is somewhat sealed,

a crack inside is not going to kill u. For the time being should be fine
