Water leak in boot

bluenose66 · 11th May 2007, 17:42

Coming from the chrome body strip. I seem to be missing one of the clips that holds the strip in place, so I used some sealent but unfortunately water is getting past the sealent. Anyone know the part number for this clip, cheers.............

Nearside mate.

doh! I missed the 'clip' word.

Well anyway:

DYC101440 Clip

The catalogue also lists this part for cars with vin numbers after 208104:

DYF000110 Washer-sealing

I wonder whether that will help cure the leak?

If you had already sealed the hole are you sure water was coming from there?
Have a good look at the rear light seals as well

I agree with Keith as the Rear Lights are known for the seals leaking.
