Replacing bulb, Serious problem

Last Friday I removed my instrument cluster because I had a bulb that went out. I had to wait the weekend before i could get another bulb. Well today I put the new bulb in, hooked everything up, and now my clock/oil guage lcd display has some weird type of splatter in it. I don't see how this is even possible since the splatter is inside of the casing. Even when I press my finger on it lightly, I couldn't emulate the same type of damage. Bending lightly won't do anything either. I was gentle with the whole cluster and I don't see how the inside could have been damaged. If touching or bending doesn't cause that type of damage, then what the hell does? It's encased and I couldn't expose that part to anything even if I wanted to. Is it repairable without having to buy an entire cluster???
