Well, it has rained a little over 6 inches in the last 5 hours and there isn't a single drop of fluid inside the wagon. {except where the rear windows were cracked! Doh}
Leak fixed it appears.....

Well, with the success of a new windshield and seal fixing my leaking {sunroof was sealed when I bought it } it was time to see if I could get the interior back in.
Getting the dash out is always easier than putting it back in. But this is the first time I removed the steering wheel. and that sure does help.
So, looking at the carnage you wonder "will it ever look the same? Will something be wrong when it goes back in?"

All appears normal, and since the leak is fixed I have the driver's side rear carpet, kick panels and driver's side foot panel all reinstalled. They haven't been in the car in a long time.

BTW, anybody want to see what an awful blue dash looks like without the dashmat installed?



It isn't just cracked but get a look at that crack/crater over the glove box.....
Actually, a cracked blue dash just without the fault line would be an upgrade.
