[W126 Coupe] Water leak into trunk

[Frank North]

Thank you guys very much. I was not looking forward to climbing into the
trunk and doing a leak test with a hose outside (and hoping my wife would
let me out!) The antennae grommet sounds like a possibilty and I will try
the paper method to see if I can isolate it. (It COULD be water from the
sunroof getting in there? I would like to get that weather strip replaced
anyway so it's tighter when closed.)

Jay: A get-together at at the museum sounds great. Perhaps that would
attract more folks from around the state. Would they give us a special tour
and let us show off a bit out front? What is their website?

*Again, thanks everyone! *
