    My trunk leaks wanna help?

    So my car has been sitting in my driveway and its been rainy the past few days. So I go into my trunk and look on the left (drivers) side and in the dip or side pocket I see about a quarter inch of water sitting in the upper corner and I noticed that the whole pocket thing down there is all diry and nasty (so this has been an ongoing problem I believe. My qestion is where is it leaking from?

    Any help is appreciated. If you guys need pics I can take them.

              is that the thing around my antenna? because if so i am missing that piece. Also would this cause my antenna to short out or stop working? (because it doesnt work :) )

                      I would get that piece on right away. I know a guy who had an E21 323i, same problem. I think the part is about 5 bucs. Have you used realoem.com ?
