Well I had been very happy about the water tightness of my car after replacing so many of the seals. But tonight it was hammering rain and I felt a drip on my leg. It was coming from somewhere around the front trunk latch pull. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif)

The only thing I could think of is the seal around the windshield.

Any thoughts on what to check? I think I am pulling off the windshield chrome.

I doubt that it would be from the windshield.
Check the front trunk for any water. See if the hood seal is sealing all the way around.
