[VR-VS] How To Fix A VN-VS Boot Water Leak

[missmcudd]

ah i wish i didnt have to do this myself and that someone would do it for me haha

 

[not_just_any_vr]

just finished re sealing mine. i used windscreen sealant, which i got from supercheap. now all i need is rain, so i can see if it works.:drink:

Great job man !!! that saves me asking how to take the rear quarter windows out... I expect I have as much crud under my quarter windows that needs cleaning out before it starts rusting.

Very good wright up!

I will have do try this on the weekend as now thats its actually rained a few times in a row in melb my boot well had some water! i hate wet carpets! :bang:

I found the water was getting in via a little hole in the lens of the tail light. I purchased them new 6 months ago and after resealing them 3 times and still got wet carpet. Took the tail light out and filled it full of water and it came out of a small hole in the lens. Small spot of clear sealer on the lens and dry boot. Yeah!

looks as though i'm gonna have to do this with my vr wagon, noticed that the carpet in the boot area looked damp and sure enough after lifting the carpet up there was water, both sides of the car oh well need to replace all the trim and upholstery anyway

I'm envious of the cleanliness n condition of ur car



on a lighter note that was a freaking awesome HOW TO
thanks alot for submitting it
the pics were extra helpful n made it so much easier

just wondering how difficult putting a sealant such as the one in 'the guide' onto the rear quarter window would make it to try and remove said window in the future, if (god forbid), the window ever become damaged or vandalised?

had the exact problem. going to fix it during the week. thanks. this thread gave a good insight how to. cheers

I fixed all the leaks WOOOOO..

I even took out the boot lights and garnishes, including the number plate and sealed around there too.

Its amazing how small the hoels are that the water is managing to get to and through!

Thanks again.:thumbsup:
