Corsa C.....passenger footwell leak.

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

I removed the battery and base for the battery before clearing out the assorted leaves and crud below. Pretty clear overall.

I believe the leak is coming from the  fuse/relay box located next to the battery. The rubber seal has perished.

Vauxhall tell me I can't buy the rubber seal alone.

True or utter b*llocks?

True but the whole cover is cheap enough......or bash some sealant in the groove where the seal sits

clean the area around the seal etc with brake cleaner, so it's spotless/dry and re-seal with silicone injecting it into all the gaps with a mastic gun.smear it flat so the water runs off out of the flap
or get a tube of rtv silicone
clicky
you won't harm the resale value any 

I did the same on both of our corsas ,some may consider it a bodge  , but silicone seals well and allows for slight movement , that's why they put it round baths,sinks showers

I don't want to sound like a miserable old fart.......but in the good old days it was easier to buy individual parts.

I have some 'no frills' silicone sealer from Screwfix. What's the worst that can happen....

I've ordered the cover and gasket complete from  a Vauxhall main dealer.

You certainly know how to treat the lady in your life. I hope she knows how lucky she is!

£15.66 is about 10% of the value of a 2003 Corsa 1.2SXI.

...........only 29000 miles though.
