    Default is this normal?

    is it normal for water to come out of these holes as soon as you open the boot after its been raining or a couple days after it was raining, it keeps happening and the water keeps wetting my audio gear, so annoying

    these 2 holes in this picture

    Rear spoiler needs re-sealing I would guess? As clearly it's not normal unless you like having a drink dispenser :P

    I have no spoiler and no water leaks, so I would have to agree with spoiler hole rubbers.

    i would assume there are rubber grommets around the bolts holding the spoiler in place. try removing the spoiler and see if there is perished rubbers or any sign of where the water is coming in.

    Where the spoiler bolt holes are located on the boot, there should be rubber seals.
    My son replaced the old, rusted bolts from his spoiler and while it was off, we made new rubbers out of bicycle inner tube.

    Pour some bloody water over your boot and do some investigating. We aren't there with you, we can't physically examine your boot for you, use some bloody initiative and try to work it out yourself. I get that it's a forum, but I don't think you get the fact that we can't always give you an answer from our computers.
