I left the car parked in the street for 2 hours some days ago... lucky me it rained! (just washed... as usual).

It was a pretty heavy downpour over a short period of time.

When I got into the car, I noticed some drops had fallen inside, at the far right side of the dashboard, from in between the bottom part of the dashboard and the top of the glovebox.

I looked but found no way for water to come in. Any ideas where to look for the leak?

I had a small leak from the space at the top of the door behind the mirror...the molding had been pinched and had a small rip in it. I just used a small amount of silicone and patched the rip, no leak

Just a thought. Oh, was in spain this past Nov. What a great time!!!

I had that problem on my 81SC and it was fixed by a new windshield gasket.

Had the same leak, same fix as Bill Gregory (new windshield gasket).

Does sound like a window seal leak. I had a minor one as well in the same place. Try to find the spot, a little bit of black silicon goop should solve the problem cost = $5.00. Or opt for a new seal, figure $250 or more (euros for you..) assuming that they do not break your window or rear-view mirror in the process.

I need to replace my windshield in the near future anyway, so I think I´ll just wait until winter comes again next october...

Thanks a lot guys!

Check also too that your Front bonnet seal is not broken at the top as there is a drainage point in your front bonnet that allows water to go through that point as well. (Behind your glovebox onto the passenger floor).
