it looks like it is never going to stop raining and i hate water dripping on my feet so i made this possibly great device. got a bit of alloy plate and drilled a few holes in it 
drilled a few holes in my car and put some nutserts in them 
put some sponge rubber on the alloy and used cap head bolts to attach it to the car. 
if it work's i will paint it to make it look flash. |

the water might also be leaking through your windscreen? Happened in my zook all the time until I got it fixed with loads of goo! |

but it cost me less then $10 to do it my way and i now have a shiny thing on the front of my car. although the plackie bag would sort of work we don't get nancy rain like down south. it isn't unusual to get 100mm of rain in a hour, and it is best to keep it on the outside of your car.

ps. vision isnt necessary what i would do is get some sprayable bitumen and just cover every thing. jobs done.  
seriously though i wouldn't think that a new seal would cost to much especially when the windscreen surround can be taken into a windscreen place and worked on easily. |

Don't want that shit growing inside your car! My mum had an old subaru wagon that had grass growing in the passenger side floor... |

spear grass can split radiators. it grows 3 or4 meters tall and can grow through roads. it is the green stuff.
