So, I replaced the carpet in my car a month or 2 ago and we have had some steady rain since. Felt my carpet today as I was working in my car and felt that both the driver and pass sides are wet. Not the hump in between, not the seats, not the door panels... just the carpet in the foot wells. Where would you recommend I begin searching for leaks? I bought a superweave cover from Cal Car Covers today in hopes that it will cure 98% of the issue but this still bothers me... any help?
Thanks. |

Wich window seal??? check the side Targa seals - the ones your windows roll up into. They get old and deformed letting water seep through. Also make sure the front targa seals above the windshield are not damaged and that the clamps holding the roof tight are still okay. |
