hello people,
i have a leak in my car. it seems to be coming from passengers side, leaking from just around the relay box and down the back of the glove box. just wondering if anyone else has had this problem and how they've rectified it.

cheers boys and girls

not yet... my mate has and they said it was due to the amp wire coming through. but the wire etc. has all been sealed up thouroughly.
will have to double check and see where exactly its coming from...

That'd do it. You'll just need to either grommit the hole and make sure the fits snug to the grommit or get some sealent on it. Bit messy but it'll solve the problem.

I've a feeling that Vauxhall will refuse to work on it as soon as they spot the wire as this is the likely if not actual cause.
