Well just got the new car on the road and last night was the first bit of rain we had so thought i would check for any leaks any where and found water to be in the passenger side rear corner of the boot.

Is this most likely to be the rear light leaking in as it has them stupid clear lights.

check and make sure that the rubber grommit is in place as there is one right in the corner of the floor. mine done the same and it was caused by the rubber grommit being missing.

Ok make sure there's no hold or tears in your boot door rubber some times rain will get in and run down the rubber in to the boot other than that it's prob just the back light leaking

I'd swap the lights as the foam around them over time goes very hard so they leak quite easily, also check there's no holes inside where the rear light is.

I will check later, Friend of mine who's a panel beater has got me some none setting stuff they use at work similar to plasticine or something. Just spent the past 16 months doing the car and getting the floors mint. Don't want all my hard work going to waste! lol
