Hi all,
I noticed my passenger side (RHD JDM) footwell carpet was very wet recently after a heavy rain storm. Are there any common places to check for leaks? The window seals look ok to me and stays in contact with the glass, and it dosen't look like the sunroof is leaking. Thanks for any help. |

I say shampoo the affected area then vacuum it thoroughly. Its still in the 70's and 80's here in Texas but where you live you may need to park it in the garage with a space heater to evaporate the remaining moisture.
Im sure the low outside temperature(means lower humidity) would serve to your advantage if you can raise the temperature on the floorboard or in the garage overnight. I suppose you could pour a cup of rice on the carpet and let it do its trick.  |
