Default CD Headlight Vents

I have a Custom Dynamics Headlight that is fogging up on me. This light is vented. There are stickers that cover the vents. Are these to be removed? They appear that they may be special in that they breath?

CD warrantied my last headlight for fogging, but this one does it too. A tech there suspects that there is not enough air exchange happening in my light bucket (sportster). I forgot to ask him about these stickers. The instructions do not state their removal.

What kind of stickers, paper? Is there anything printed on them company logo etc. if they are covering what appears to be a vent i would assume they should come off.

They don't look like normal stickers... they are black and have a texture to them. Dont have a pic and the light has been reinstalled... maybe this weekend I can get some pics.
