Leaky Boxster top seal 1998

[Paul]

Sometimes an installer can tear holes in the foam trays when installing a top. The smallest hole will allow a lot of water to enter behind the seats.

Is there a chance that these plastic water deflectors are missing?

They appear to aim the water toward the drain area.

YES,
My used '98 never had screen deflectors. Never knew about them.
Is that stock on a 1998 ?
It had hardly ever been out in the rain until that fateful trip to Sonoma.

No wonder I felt like Moses parting the Red Sea.
Holy Crap !
