Well I was running audio wires on the passenger side today so I could get all my speakers amped and well I found some disturbing **** under my passenger seat under the carpet (bottom side) its wet so I kept going back because it was all wet and lifted out the backseat boom, bigass puddle got the vac out and sucked it up... I'v checked a few things so far let

-T-top seals are good I checked last night during rain + headliner is not wet at all
-Hatch Seal is good
-Door Seals are good

Kinda confused how this happend guys iv heard of the pass floorboard thing but not this

this problem is older than dirt. when you park on an incline with the nose pointing DOWN, water pools up by the hatch and overflows into your backseat

took out my whole carpet today because i figured id let it dry out right.. everything passenger seat back is soaking then under the driver side back seat was damp...

gonna let it dry then shampoo the carpet also run all my speakers and subs with the factory wires... maybe do some sound deadening stuff to

The answer to the problem is to rip off the hatch weather striping and use 3m weatherstriping glue and weld that **** back onto the car. Pay special attention to the corner where the bpillar meets the quarter panel. The stock glue is ****, even it if appears good. Your going to have to pull the carpet out anyways because it's wet, but thats okay. Trust me, I had this problem on both my fbodies.

using grease on the weather stripping will prolong thier life.....also mcguires makes a balm almost that comes in a purple bottle you can put on the weather stripping to help it out
