Title: Sunroof drains
Post by: Andy B on 27 October 2010, 12:27:14

[size=14]I had a quick look for the damp inside car topic, but decided to give these pictures their own topic.  ;)
The sunroof drains through the boot on either side the passenger side is just behind where the spare wheel lives.[/size]

[size=14]and the driver's side drains though the boot floor just to the rear of the wheel arch behind where the GM first aid kit has its stowage and just in front of the CD changer where fitted. Cable tied to the body.[/size]

I have to admit that the image I have in my head of the driver's side must've been my Senator  ::)  ::)  ::)

Here it is from the outside. Rear bumper removed. You can get get to it without removing the bumper, hand up the skirt, but you can't see it.

I'm guessing ;) that they drain into the front of the sills behind the kick panels ..... they did in my Manta many year ago.  :y
