Hi,
well mine has been out in the rain quite a few times recently and no more water in the passenger's foot well.
I was wondering if it may have come in through the air inlet in the Left front guard and run down the ducting. - (Haven't a clue where/how it runs, or if it has drain holes in it.)
cheers

for those that get a wet leg when they brake after rain when water pours on them from the roof above the door.. take the roof lining out and tighten all the roof bolts up! it seemed to solve my issue... i think there may have been a few leaks caused by cracks in the sealant and joins and tightening the roof seemed to help! while your at it you may as well tighten the rest of the body bolts!

Thanks

Steve

Any tricks/tips to removing the lining?
