94 RS the only place i could think of where the drips are coming from is the windshield seal at the top...so i spread some window sealant around there.... has neone else had this problem? lol i sealed it once before and i thought ti stopped the problem but now its doing it again

Re: Water drips from rearview mirror
There is a gasket behind the mirror mount that prevents water from getting in there. Remove the mirror and see what you find.

Re: Water drips from rearview mirror
Our mirrors are not held on by the glass, where is there a gasket?

I'm sure there is a rubber seal around the mirror mount that keeps the water out.

Re: Water drips from rearview mirror
Wrong mirror wytbishop.
I have my mx-3 rearview mirror in my sunfire (don't ask) and I don't recall seeing a gasket, or any place it could leak from.
Mok, do you have a sunroof? Maybe the drain hoses are clogged somewhere? I have no idea if those being clogged would cause it to leak down the middle of the windshield, but its a thought.

Re: Water drips from rearview mirror
the urethane that hold the windsheild is probly dried out or you may have a bit of rust under the molding. when i pulled my old windsheild out it was really dry and kinda fell apart near the centre. you might have to get the whole thing re-sealed.
