    Water ingress Frpnt Runner Gullwings

    Has anyone else had any issues with water ingress through a Front Runner Gull wing? Pics attached show how bad it was and it had not rained in 3 days. Only checked as I had to get something out and dont even know how long it had been wet. Seals seem ok, but was does look a little different is the top on the side with the shelving seems to stick out a few more mm than the other side. Pretty annoyed as pretty much destroyed around $3-400 of first aid gear plus likely damage to shelf itsel (rust) and shelf carpet.

    Gullwing doors are like defender sunroofs, and you know what land rover owners do with those when they leak.

    But im guessing you're not ready to seal it shut with sikafex just yet!

    You could put a battery powered lantern in there one night to find where the light escapes. From your description it sounds like the door might need straightening.

    Im also interested to know if anyone else has had issues with water ingress, I've been thinking abour getting a pair myself.
