That is where you see the rust and mineral build up in that photo. So if the Z was driven in the winter, chances are you will find the same build up in that spot.

This is also the same reason why using the grommet where all the wires enter the cabin as a way to hook up gauges are a bad idea. The grommet will be worthless and leak water into the cabin unless it is sealed off again with some sort of sealant.
Damn I'll have to check mine then

I can't wait until all the bugs are worked out of this kit. I want an FD3S with an LS swap, but I'd rather use a newer chassis. They're both awesome!
