2. the water is coming in from the rear window seals. This can be sorted with a product called Captain Tolley’s Creeping Crack Cure (leak/crack sealer). Very simple to use and very affective at sealing the holes. No need to remove the chrome trim to use it.

OR, replace the clips, which is where the problem is - i did mine without hassle. you dont need to remove the glass as has been said before. Tolleys is good too, if it doesnt work get the clips from Rimmers. do a wet test - water the window with a hose, (boot closed)let the most drain away then (open boot) put your fingers in the holes that run each side of the boot light, is it wet?
