After reading this I went and checked mine. I do not have a leak in the front but I had one in my trunk. It seems to be coming from the side light marker.

Finally fixed with the help of some silicone! Will get pics of what I sealed in a little bit. Rained here all last week and not one drop of water got in! Now I have to put the interior back together, heh. I guess the stang won't be going anywhere after all..

First thing first, you need to fix the window trim that leaks!



Next I did the A-piller.



Lastly I fixed the cowl gaskets



Here is another picture of the gasket



All I can say is good luck with it. It's been a pain the ass, but as far as I can tell I don't see anymore water coming in. It rained very heavily all last week and nothing. I will cross my fingers nothing else pops up. I have actually made it a habbit the last few weeks to stop at every ford dealer I see with a used Mustang on the lot and check for a water leak and what do you know the tally is about 16 cars out of the 20 I checked. It's gonna be hard to sell a car when you jump in for a test drive and get punched the face by the smell of mold. Quality is job #1??

A little late now but, FWIW, Ford says in their tech document NOT to use silicon. They specify a sealer use for this type of application. Some silicones can cause corrosion.

They also manufactured a rolling fish tank, I'll take my chances with the silicone, lol

3 year old thread and chock-full of info. Love the comment "rolling fish tank".

I'm always checking my garage queen '07 and the g/f's 06. But since both sit in the garage most of the time it may not rear it's ugly head. Except maybe her '06. Her's is a DD. We keep our fingers crossed.
