clear silicon or epoxy around the edges should keep stuff out, might look ok too if you're carefull. But you whould need to clean out whatever is in there first.

I bought some from Ebay that had the same problem.

A little clear silicon did the trick.

You bought something off ebay and expected quality?
ebay is always a crap shoot.

e-bay's not the problem, it's the cheap Chinese knockoffs that are the problem, but it usually takes just a few minutes to fix. Cheapest materials + cheapest labor=High earnings, don't you just love capitalism!
