taillights still leaking!

[Melt]

I put new taillights, cemet sealed the gaskets to the tails then siliconed the car side and i checked a little bit ago and my shit still leasks ... where else could it be coming from ... the water comes in on the left side somewhere like at very left side of my trunk when you look in

maybe the spoiler bolts? Cause my shits a base LS that was on hubcaps when i got it so i think the spoiler was added later

if i was near you id come by and fix it for ya. hard to diagnos on the net. all i can say is this. take out ALL rear trim pieces. then once its all out, poor baby powder all over the back of your car. then go to a hose and spray water ALL over into all cracks and what not. then pop the trunk and look the water will leave a little stream in the baby powder leading you right to the leak. then get some silicone and blast that bitch of a leak.

well its not the spoiler i checked that but this is pissing me off so much ... how do i get the side panels off without too much trouble ... i could get them off till about the middle ... can someone scan their helms manual?

Im seriously about to take the damn silicone gun and silicon through the crach WHILE THE TAILS ARE ON THE CAR

I would take all the panels off. Lay in the back of the car, and get somebody to run a hose over the car.

ok so my boy told me the power antenna drains into the same spot as the sunroof and thats prob clogged ... i siliconed the cap of the antenna to the car so now it leaks not that much but still ... so if it doesnt rain tommorow im gonna take everything off and clean that bitch out and fix it .... he also gave me his black housing altezzas and the hobby shop finally got some more transparent red so im gonna paint those and hopefully they turn out better ... then ill sell the clear ones and my stock tails and be good to go hopefully ... this shit is mad gay though that i have gone through all this trouble. He also showed me how to get the back panel off without busting all those clips again so thats coo.
