QUOTE (NOVAKx17 @ Dec 8, 2012 - 3:37 PM) I agree! i was thinking this and searching around for some... also, what would be the cause of a small puddle in the trunk.... i noticed it when i opened it up last night getting gas on the way home from buying her. it was raining pretty good. is there a normal leak area or just mine. ha I have the same issue with my '99. I think the wet trunk might be connected to water in the "hammock" that the roof folds into. The leak in mine is probably around my rear window. some verts have a drain line at the bottom of the hammock, but not mine. let me know what happens with yours. |

the verts have a draining system that with time it becomes clogged, need to be cleaned..
