ok heres the deal, somehow water is getting into the plastic peice of the trunk behine where the liscence plate is. So when I open the trunk, water drips, well poours, into my trunk. And i mean on a snowy day or rainy day its quite a bit. Just dont know where its getting into though. Anyone with prior experience or knowledge on this?

go to a hardware store and buy some foam or rubber weather stripping with a sticky back to it. Take that part out and tape the weather stripping around it and put it back on the car it should seal it up.

Perhaps troubleshooting, where troubles are posted, and we figure out solutions....

Take the part out and put it ALL AROUND the edge and that will seal it up. I think if you posted this up anyones A$$ it would hurt a lot.

Okay smart guy... Give me one good reason why this belongs in Aesthetics!?!?  I went to troubleshooting and searched for Trunk water. And this is what i came up with.

I got over ethused(sp) one day. The square foam is probably your problem.

Make sure you seal it really good above the the license plate. On my old CSVT the water would leak past the rubber seal and through the holes to access the license plate lamps. It filled up every time it rained until I put a new seal on.
