Besides the possibility of the brain compartment leaking on a FI model, the clip boots for the cargo area panels can leak water in and behind the panels and under the rubber mat. Was quite a mystery until I looked through the air intake louvers and noticed a couple of naked panel clips! I replaced all boots and ended the seeping. -- Yancy Everhart 66 Squareback 63 T34 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
