What was I THINKING???
Talk about a comedy of errors...
I was looking forward to taking the car out on a very rainy day yesterday. I still have the side panels and carpeting up. So I wanted to get a good look at leak sources, besides my rear hatch/washing theory.
I also had disconnected the battery while I put on the Stranos this weekend.
So, I'm out in the pouring rain, and I realize the CD player needs to be reset because of the battery disconnect. I stop and pop open the hatch.... and a half gallon of water pours in off the hatch![Bang Head](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_banghead.gif)
Then down the freeway to Target, the road noise is loud due to the stripped interior. And I don't notice til I come out of Target that the passenger window was down an invisible 1/8"...letting another flood of water in..![Bang Head](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_banghead.gif)
So much for my rain test...
