After not finding anything that helped me in the search engine, I decided to ask here. Since the wet season started here in Oregon (like it ever really ends), my trunk has been retaining water. The trunk seal looks fine, and the grommit around the trunk antenna mast looks good. There's a tiny hint of water that looks to be dripping down from the lower corners of the rear window, but it isn't enough to provide the amount of water I have.

My only thought now is; does the lettering on the trunk lid have some sort of seal where the mounting tabs pass through the trunk lid? I ask mainly because this is where I get a shower of water every time I open the trunk. It has to be coming in that way, But I wanted to ask so that I don't overlook something. This is my first Benz, so I am still learning.

Thanks everyone!
