floor pans are solid. weather strippings? are those the rubber tubing that seals the door. they seem ok but ive reacently found out that they do let water in as a common fault. do you think it would b a good idea to get them re-fitted?? thanks

check the drain line from the A/C Evaporator in the passenger compartment - rubber drain hose may be clogged so the condensate builds up inside the car. When its hot and humid, the car should drip. The drain is on the right side, near the back of the front wheel.
