Default Problems with weather stripping anyone? Water rolls in through speaker cover.

Has anyone had any problems with the weather stripping on either the driver side or passenger side? Sometime when it rains very hard or if i go through a car wash i gets little drops of water that roll out of where the speaker cover is.
I have even popped the cover off and saw that the very base of the speaker itself had evidence of water on it.

Its an 03. I assume one could just buy a new set and be rid of the problem but i wasnt sure if anyone else had some across the same situation.


Thanks dudes

yeah i have an 03, but the only problem i experience is when i go through a car wash (not recommended anyway, but something quick if in a hurry) water drips from the top of my window and onto the door panel. annoying but i just wash my car by hand and don't experience this problem. i have bad weather stripping on my rear window though. irritating. gotta get it fixed

Same problem here. After it rains, Ill be driving and the force of the wind pushes the water in and it drips on my leg.... Guess its time to replace the weather stripping. Glad its not just me though.
