The piece of plastic where the hood latch is located?

Which exact piece of plastic? Can you take a picture?

Thank you dirtykk well found where the water is coming from that fills my driver side floor board. There is about a 1.5" slit in what looks to be my frame not to sure anyways it's full of water and is spilling out the slit onto the floor board. Dont know why or how it's getting there. Had to pull out the carpet pad because it was soaked and full of mold. Any ideas of where the water is coming from?

Is it up on the firewall? There's supposed to be a rubber grommet blank in the fire wall on the left side of the drivers well. It's probably an inch in diameter.

No it's about 5" above hood latch right under where the dash attaches to the metal. The slit is about 1.5" long and 1/4" wide.

can you try and post a pic of it?

Yep as soon as there's a brake in the rain and I remember my photobucket account stuff.

Here is where the slit in the medal is

And this is where the water builds up.

If you look at the little section where the slit is from the bottom of the slit to the bottom of the raised section is full of water and over flows out.

pretty sure that "slit" is where the clip for the kick panel goes in. how its leaking water from there is beyond me. obviously start at the top of the vehicle around the roof rails and top of the windshield.

Do you have a sun roof or sky slider? Those could be leaking. If you have a sun roof try cleaning out the drain tubes

Nope no sun roof or skyslider

Check all the weatherstripping around the door. There has to be a gap somewhere

All weather stripping is good around the door. I poured water on roof and then looked in the "slit" and I'm not 100% sure but I think it's coming in that way. It might be behind the left corner panel. I am so lost on this one.

Do you have other than stock roof rails? I've heard that the sheet metal is prone to cracking around the bolts

No I just got pretty much the useless bolt cover rail. I think I may have figured out a quick fix though.

Can anyone post a picture of their front windshield at the top where it meets the roof? Please.

cgass · **Posted:** Wed May 16, 2012 11:14 am

This is the best I have at the moment. I can take one when I get home this afternoon
