From what I can see you were correct in replacing them.

Glad you got them out, even with those low miles. They seem to be in decent shape, although small cracks may be beginning to develop. But niw they're out, and you can drive without worry.

God work.

On the left one in the picture, the small crack is where they all start to crack because of the internal slot in the plastic barrel. Once that starts, it's only a matter of time.
