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.

Wow I must be posing my mind. I thought I posted an update, but that was a couple of beers ago!. I will try again.


The winner is a leaking windshield.

Found that the windshield was not attached to the adhesive in the corner where I saw the leak. A little pushing and probing showed that the chrome trim was all that was really holding the windshield in. Except for that one spot that caused the windshield to crack all the way down.

But it provides great access for changing the dash vinyl!
