Check all the screws in the grill below the windshield. My old one 
had some loose and I removed them, put a little silicone on them and 
screwed them back in. That took care of it. By the way, my leak was 
only noticeable when parked uphill.

          Hey gang,

Today I checked the little "blower motor cooling hose" (I think that's 
what it's called -- the little one in an L-shape) to see if it was wet. 
It wasn't, and it seals correctly.

However ...

... when I was ducking my head out from under the dashboard because I 
realized it was starting to rain again, I accidentally dislodged the air 
hose -- the one that runs to the door vent.

THAT is when I got water pouring into my ear! :-(

It seems that water is collecting at the end of that hose -- where it 
connects to the black plastic casing for the middle vents, or very near 
to it. I don't know whether this is condensation or whether it could be 
water leaking in from the outside. It *has* been raining here off and on 
for a few days.

Thoughts?

Cheers,
