Thanks for sharing.

Default Passenger Side leak

My new 2017 z is also leaking on the passenger side, the seat-belt is wet after big rainy days. It is currently at the dealer, they are replacing the door seals, which I think is more of a guess than the actual cause. I will forward the pic / info about the panel and rubber seals for the clips.
