Default S4+ Rear cluster housing drainage

Following a long time ago post from Dr Bob. Here are some pictures of the drains in my rear cluster housing. This is to avoid the pooling and streaking from water retained in the housing after washing (& rain). Beats having to remove the cluster at each wash to dry this area out.

Slightly countersunk drain holes and foam weatherstripping.

This is exactly what I have planned to do but not gotten to yet.
It should help keeping moist out of the lenses as well.
Thanks for sharing

Alan this is a good idea.

Another way to address the rediculous amount of water which is retained below the light is to use compressed air. My vacuum also has a blower which I use to blow water out of crevices before I start drying with a cloth.

Wish Porsche considered water drainage issues when they designed these cars.
