Default H-T PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

I know many people have had this problem before, I've searched and it seems that the problem is mainly taillight gaskets or the bottom air vent gasket underneth the rear bumper. Anyways, when it rains I always hear splashing water in the spare tire department of my trunk and now the interior of my car smells and gets wet. TIA!


I did a little invesgating and found these two holes underneth the rear end of my car to the right side of the muffler.


These are the two same holds, but from the top of the trunk, hiding under all the carpet of the right side of the trunk.


And where I have circled it with a red circle, when I opened my trunk I found water dripping from that area.

Please help.. once again, TIA.

Those 2 holes shouldnt be there. They were probably drilled in for a system or something.

As for the trunk one, spray it down with water from a spray bottle until you see water come from the area you circled, itll give you a better idea of where its coming from. When you find it pick up some epoxy and hit those areas and that should fix it, unless you have more holes somewhere.

What are u asking, how to fix it? Just get some silicone and put it over the holes and no there arent any holes in honda trunks for drainage because there shouldnt water in your trunk in the first place.

yes but its at one of the lowest point in the trunks where the water will sit. these holes look father up. might be some kind of holes drilled for a shitty exhaust bracket or something? or a system as mentioned

When I got the car, it was completely stock. I bought it from an old school teacher. She even still had her stock radio in. The only exhaust I had on this car was a Tanabe G-Power Medallion. Yes, I'm asking how to fix it. Thanks!

With my car, i had a hole in the rear wheel house, så that water from the wheels got in behind the rear trunk covers and drowned my spare tire..

It can be this, og your trunk lid..
