I had a copy of the bulletin somewhere. Send me a note if this sounds like your problem. I will see if I can dig it up.

I've driven the car in the rain once and really soaked the passenger foot well.

Good luck.

I have a 2000 model FRC. I have had the problem with the a/c drain ... finally got that fixed. It was actually leaking on the passenger side the first time. However now, water is pouring in on the driver's side... just when it rains or I wash it, which is 50% of the time. It looks as if water is draining into a gap where the windshield, door, and fender meet. From this point, it must hit the upper door hinge and runs onto the crossmember located under the dash. There is no gasket or seal located here. Does anyone else know of a solution or maybe even a recall dealing with this. Oh yeah, I've had the window adjusted to the max and that didn't fix it.
