never thought of that one! deffinetly will have to check that out. Michigan roads could cause something like that i'm sure!
if you stand at the back bumper facing the front of the car with the trunk open. Look at the bottom right corner of the window. In the trough. I had cracks there that looked like they were just paint cracks. Ended up being the source of one of my trunk leaks.

Tail light assembly seals are a common leak into the trunk. Go get a cup of hot cocoa and take a look at jr's3800 super duper leak post. Most of the common and uncommon leaks are discussed and pictured there: http://www.bonnevilleclub.com/forum/...ic.php?t=29366
