Water leak

hi guys
just got in my cabby and noticed that the passenger front and rear fotwells are soaking wet,
checked up by the bulkhead and that seems dry
any common places that you are aware of that are likley to let water in?

hope you can help

Check that water is not getting via the rear light/hatch seal and migrating forward via the rear footwell to the front - happened to me once when the n/s rear light seal failed....is your boot wet ????

ahh i will check it when i get home as im out at the moment
can you get the seals seperate or you have to buy a light unit?

I got a closed-cell rubber strip of the correct cross-section from a seal supplier at last year's NEC classic car show….can't remember the company name now but if a find it (google auto/car rubber seals???), I'll post back.

just checked the boot floor when i got in and the boot floor is dry so can only think it is from somewhere in the footwells

Couple more places to check... windscreen seal, bulkhead gromets and door membrane.

leaves in bulkhead grommets i reckon -

common area on cabbies is the intersection between the top corner of the quarter light and the roof...

and both side windows as they don't always touch the seal without adjustment.

are the seat bolsters wet? if they are its probably the seals above. if not its probably the vapour barriers behind the door cards
