GTSMarky Posted August 12, 2022 Report Share Posted August 12, 2022 Very interesting and reminds me how tricky interior trim can be.. As for the kerbed alloy - no excuses! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patt Posted August 12, 2022 Report Share Posted August 12, 2022 He's not quite correct on what happens if they are blocked. The water doesn't just ingress near the seat belt. The sill it's self fills with water and the lowers internal hole is above and in line with the ECUs. It' take quite some time to completely empty/dry out the inner seal once it's been full ! I've removed the one way valves as the odd spider is better than another flood, and I do not like spiders either ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first indication was a wet seat belt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The supplying dealer for mine “modified the drains” which turns out to be remove the bungs. Wildlife encroachment is probably more of an issue in Australia or maybe this country in another couple of weeks 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞 Edited August 12, 2022 by iborguk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
