I washed my Jeep today for the second time. The mirrors drip water for days and leave spots all over the side of the jeep. I read a thread about drilling a weep hole so I gave it a whirl. The first mirror I removed and tried doing the v-cut in the gasket like the thread said. (too much hassel) I ended up drilling a tiny hole underneath where the flat part of the mirror meets the round part (just above the gasket seal inside) and put it back on. I went to the other side and decided to just drill and not remove the mirror. My mirror was pissing like a race horse! Good quick fix! The hole just needs to be tiny.

Thanks the pic helped a bunch.
Did you drill straight in or go in at an upward angle?

Rubimon

At a slight upward angle. It's just plastic so go slow. If you do it after you wash it water squirts right out as soon as it breaks through. I have to think a lot of that water seeps into your door panel after seeing how it mounts inside.

I've always wondered, do race horses really piss more than regular horses?? :confused:

Robar

That was easy. Thanks for the tip.
I had green water draning out. I could have been raising skeetos.

Rubimon

No, just faster!

Non-race horses pee when the urge hits. Race horses have to hold their pee till they are done racing, hense more backup and pressure.
