about 2 weeks ago i got some whippa snippa cable and shoved it down the 2 front and 2 rear nipples. I then cleaned them from the bottom up too. the rear left was gunked up and hence the rear pass footwell was wet and soggy and disgusting.

trust me, the water that came out was absolutely feral water, it stank and there was about 300mL at least.

Do these drainage pipes exist on the non-sunroof models? I think my problem is the door anyways, but just for future reference..

Is there a tube to drain from the antenna?

[JustCruisn]

The tubes are specific to sunroofs. The sunroof has a gutter that drains via the tubes.
There is no drain on the antenna, it has seals both internal and external. The external seal is mostly cosmetic and often dries out and breaks, it is a cheap fix.

Thanks mate,
My external antenna base/seal is cracked and will need replacing, but seems quite solid and doesn't seem to be causing any issues at the moment.

Thats the front drivers door, but the seal is the same on all four doors, Clean them all for sure.

And here are some crappy blurry pictures of the nipples

Front is near the hinge of the door


Back, is underneath the very rear of the car. Sorry for the crap picture, tried my best with my go pro lol



Im fairly sure they are the same on the other side as well.

so i just take the nipples out, shove some wire up there to clean them out ?

The nipples are like little tubes with an end that can seal itself, if you squeeze them they will open up. Then put the wire/wipper snipper cord up there.
