ok, my dad went to the dealership and talked to one of the mechanics yesterday, he said that we should try siliconing the gasket, their $15 each at the dealership. so we managed to get the taillights off, noticed that there was some water and gunk in there, cleaned it all up, siliconed it, and now we're just waiting for the next bit of rain. will let you know!! I'm thinking that was def. it though. thanks for all your help!

if you have an aftermarket wing you might need gaskets on the bolts. caus that is one of the spots that mine leeked at, along with the tail lights.

since these is a leaking thread... I also have a leak well leaks..... I have fixed the notorious tail light leak but now I have a leak coming from the sides. I looked to see if it is the drain tubes but cant really tell. I am just going to silcone the s**t out off all the places water can come in. hopefully no more water in the trunk.

[Jersey8]

its probably the drain hoses then. i would work on trying to get to those

i have the same problem also, but it happened after sum jerk in a truck backed into me. not much damage, just a busted taillight. but after it happened, ive been getting water in my trunk also. ive sealed up what i thought was the problem, but its still coming.

yea i have water coming in from the plastic c pillar panels. it drips down right where my speakers would be (hatch is stripped). it's towards the back of the rear windows. I'd be surprised if the rear windows were leaking...but i guess anything is possible.

maybe it's the hatch seal towards the top and it's just running along the c pillars?
