Rain Water Leaking In

Hi,

Recently rain water has been leaking in behind my glove box. I did not see any visible cracks that would cause this.

Any ideas why this might be? Gromet popped out?

See the TSB for the issue. Grommet or just gunk clogging the drainage area would be my first guess.

+1 on the TSB or simply the grommets at the bottom of the well, accessible from the engine compartment. If it's the latter, then you probably saturated the cabin air filter which is worthless anyway.

Took out my door plugs and the one on the firewall passenger side. Is there a plug on the "driver" side firewall? I thought I remember reading that there was one on this side in a previous thread. If so can someone explain exactly whaere it is? I could not find one.

Thanks
