Heh...well, I think I found the reason why water drips out of my tail housing every time I wash my car...

I'm completely missing a piece of weather stripping in the trunk, the one that runs all the way around the outermost part of the trunk lid. I can see a little bit of adhesive from the original piece still left behind.

I went to a few auto parts stores and they didn't know what to tell me as far as where I can look. Am I gonna have to go junkyard, or can you buy a generic pliable roll/piece of thick weatherstripping material that has adhesive on one side anywhere?

I'm sure the dealership would love to help me out , but I'd try the junkyard first if that's what it comes down to. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
