I have an 01 ws6. Everytime it rains water gets into the hatchback. You know that little opening on the back between the trunk and the top of the tail lights. Theres a 1/4 inch gap in there and when it rains water comes in. Does any1 know if and where i can get like black rubber strips to put around it. Do they make them???

If you are leaking water the factory seal isn't working properly anymore.
The gap you see shouldn't cause a leak...water should actually go in there and exit out the back of the car.
Probably needs new weatherstripping around the hatch lid.

im having the same problem with the leak but i suspect that mine is coming from the window itself. i think the seal has worn through. im going to go get it reset and see if that stops the problem. soo check your window seal and see if thats the case
