A/c drains or pollen filter seals

pollen filter access panels are in the scuttle panel.

lift the bonnet and you'll see two panels drivers and passenerg side about an inch and half high and 8 inches long (real inches...not what you tell the Mrs)..

there's a cross head screw on either side, undo them and check the foam seal in the lid. (the pollen filters slide out on a rail).

these foam seals leak and water runs down the filter housing onto the footwell carpet.

When you pull out the fillters see if thay are wet if so theres your problem seal round the opening with self adhesive draft excluder cheep mess free and easy works a treat, there is also some screws in the scuttle that need sealing as well.

Also after checking the pollen filter seal, get the RR in the air (on a ramp if your big like me) if your small on high suspension setting slide underneath, above the bell housing on both undersides of floor pan you will find little rubbers they are drain plugs and get blocked with mud and dirt fiddle with them until you feel water coming through.

+1.

The A/C drain can be seen if you peer under the cetre console. It pushes on to a white pipe IIRC. If you stick a small jubilee clip on you'll never have to worry about it again.

Personally I like to get underneath , hand up either side of the bellhousing and give the rubber nipples a good squeeze and get an arm full of dirty water. Brings back memories
