[DML] Update on leak.



I seem to have cured the water leak on the passenger side of the car. Here's what I did;
 
1) Thoroughly cleaned the front channel from the roof down with a bottle brush and soap and water.
2) Pulled up the inner weather strip and shot a bead of caulk all along it and pressed it back in place.
3) Shot caulk into everything that looked like a seam.
4) Removed the screws that hold the wiper "grill" and shot caulk into the holes and replaced the screws.
 
The caulk I used was Dap Dynaflex 230. The reason I used this is that it's clear and can be cleaned up with water. Just use a damp towel to clean off the excess and after it drys you can't see it. This stuff is supposed to be good for 50 years.  I hate the look left by the black silicone.
