Here it has been silly wet again - I get the impression both of my cars need as much drainage as possible at the moment. Quite a lot of water gets sent through those drains in the hood spring pocket areas on both the W123 and W201 - where's it gonna go if it can't get down there? Hopefully it will just roll down the side of the car but if it starts to pool at the front of the engine bay that might not be so great.
