    Rain around battery/brake booster area?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    From the looks of it, I would expect that rain can get in the area where the battery, brake booster, ECU box is. Is this correct? Or am I being paranoid (again)?

    Thanks,
    -Neil.

    My car (2004) has a part of that on the passenger side, so I was thinking that perhaps the rest of it was taken off by the prev owner. I should get one anyway. BTW, I ask because I was thinking I should some waterproof connectors for my wiring in that area.

    Just try sourcing a used/new one. They can't be expensive.

    Actually it's not fine for me because I am putting a connector in that area, and now I need to find something waterproof instead.

    I didn't think that cowl looked waterproof anyway. Might want to fab something for your app.
    GO KNIGHTS!
