Thanks for this great fix. After tomorrow no more seep after washing! WaHoo!

Default Is this still needed for the 2011 models?

Have jeep made any improvements in the 2011 model so that this is no longer needed?
Otherwise I guess this is the first thing I do on the new JK

regarding "piss like a race horse," the saying came about from back in the day when they pumped race horses with performance enhancing drugs. they would then pump them full of fluids to help flush out their system before race weekend. the horses would pee constantly and frequently, and thus the cliche.

Did it today and tested with water hose. Works like a charm!

Same results! We have red dirt here so the water that drained out of my mirror mounts was kind of rust colored. I hope that isn't a sign of things to come. RUST + JEEP = BAD
It worked and my wax job didn't get crapped up with dirty water spots.
