Default boat or mustang?

09 gt, and i been having a lot of electrical issues. the guys at the stealership told me what i was dreading, that my junction box had water in it. they blamed the water was coming from clogged hood vents (bunch of bull****) and decided to order the parts via the TSB(yes, after i had to inform them of it and give them a copy). I hosed the car down today and you can see the water run right in. Any suggestions of where its coming from, from guys who have had this problem?

It's the little plastic clips that the wiper cowl sits in. They have foam seals under them, which suck! I just used silicone to seal them, but the tsb's call for something else. Mine has not leaked since and that was years ago. For some reason only the passenger side clips let water into the cabin, i've never sealed my drivers side clips.



That's the bottom edge of the front windshield at the top of the pic.
