i think this was covered some where before. the tubes are like vents so air can come out/in, so you can close your doors and all that good stuff. that could be a factor as well as taillight gasket, trunk linings,etc.. heres a couple threads that experienced similar problems

yea thanks for finding them links..

and i want to make a custom trunk install.. so the rag idea.. is good but i dont want to bother with that.

i sealed the tails completey.. it was comin in from there before i belive.. i layed in the trunk while my dad hosed down the car.. lol..

now its comin from behind that metal ridge .. near the wheel well..but behind... i have pics..

i might just weld a barrier from the two point.. caulk it up.. and drill some holes.. so when water gets in there.. it will just drain out.. haha..

thanks again..

You mean the plastic tubes that are behind the carpet that go over the wheel wells? I found mine the other day while I was putting on a set of new shocks. I was like "WTF?"
