Here's today's challenge.
Hello Guys.
After washing the Handsome Beast, water drips from the heat box, at the corner of the heater box air flaps. How or where is the water getting into the box?
I've let the garden hose run a steady stream of water half way between the windscreen and the bonnet. I've made sure the water does not get to the bonnet rain channel. It streams around the windscreen rubber seal and both of the wiper boxes and jet outlets.
While the water is running, I'm looking under the dash, at the wiper boxes and the jet outlets. No water drips from any of those 4 points.
Is there a drawing out there or does anyone have some photos showing how the heater box is connected to the frame.
I don't have any type of seal along the stainless steel bead. FWIW.
Any ideas of where I can look to see where the water is getting into the box?
Anyone? Also know as the regulars, who love a challenge. Please tell me I'm not the only person who has water dripping from this place.
Drive it like you stole it.

When I use the term heater box, I am referring to the long rectangular tube that the heat goes into and escapes via the two black hinged flaps.
Not the black box that the heater radiator is in.
What is the correct name for that tube that goes from one side of the car to the other, and carries the hot air, heat directed at our feet?
