Default Water standing in the bottom of my CAI AIRAID box

I've noticed when my vehicle is parked and it rains. There's is water standing in the bottom of the CAI box. Not a lot but enough I've noticed it. What do I need to do?? Does this also mean water could be penetrating the filter while driving down the road when it's raining?? Help please!!! This is my daily driver and I don't want to destroy my baby!!!

I don't think it's going to hurt anything the filter should stop it. I get a little bit or water in mine with the Steeda CAI. I live in Seattle and yeah no issues with all the rain we get.

Yeah I just clean mine every few weeks in the winter, cause of all the nasty rain! Just wish I could clean the rest of the car this time of the year.... Water gets in mine sometimes after I wash it too.

Has anybody besides JLT done a mod included with the intake for the 13 and 14s?

JLT includes a piece of pre-cut foam in all their CAI kits to prevent the water from getting into the airbox of the 13 and 14's. I was wondering if anybody else has stepped up and offered this prevention.
