Wet Seatbelt After A Rain


Sluggo

Recommended Posts

My 92 SC4 has a problem after it rains - the driver's side seatbelt is getting wet INSIDE the rear side panel. I took the panel off today to see where the water was coming in and it looks like it might be coming in near the back of the rear window, then running forward along the inner panel support (metal part), then dripping onto the belt. The space directly over the belt retractor itself was dry and showed no signs of recent leakage.

The water also collects under the rear seat, putting some electrical connections at risk.

Anyone found a sure-fire fix to this problem? I hate the mildew smell the belt gets :(

You could try sealing it from the inside. Take off the trim and get some silicone sealant and caulk around the back of the window. Or ask Lexus to get a new window seal and install it for you. I bet that wouldn't be cheap.
