my corsa is stripped at the mo and when i took the carpet/sound deadening out it was damp in the drivers footwell, investigation saw the grommet for the engine loom to ecu wasnt in properly so fixed that. its rained hard a couple times since and i noticed a puddle of water in the drivers footwell again and found it coming between two over lappin pieces of metal just to the left of the previously mentioned grommet. could anyone help me out with a solution??
