[W126 Coupe] Oh Bugger!

Well, too good to be true indeed seems to be just that! Took the car out
again and the leak that I thought I had fixed with sealant in the front
passenger side drain at the base corner of the windscreen is still leaking
slightly, and I think i need to get it fixed properly.

I couldn't access it properly as the base of the windscreen and what looks
like the braket that secures the windscreen is right in the way. Anyway,
the tray that collects the water is rotted and will need repairing.

So, my question is what is actually required to rectify the problem? Does
the rusted metal need to be cut away and replaced (if so I would imagine the
Windscreen, dash and other close compnents need to be removed and thus I
would hazard a guess that it's a pretty big job)? Or is there a simpler way
to do it?

This is a real pain in the proverbial as I can't drive the car without
getting this sorted - as we are only expecting one (!) rain free day in
july/august in the UK!

Again, thanks in advance for your help.
