I started having a water leak into my trunk and spare tire area. I don’t see a drain in the spare area but I do have some type of round area that looks like it’s supposed to be a drain. Is this a drain or has anyone else drilled and plugged in case of water?

 

I dont think it has a drain for the spare trunk. Mine did not drain out when it got wet.

 

There are body plugs in the trunk

 

Thanks, I’ll have to clean it out by hand then.

 

in the spare area?

 

BODY PLUGS

 

Its either a steel or aluminum plug in the trunk. I would check it with a magnet but it doesnt allow water to drain in the spare tire area.

 

It’s C in the diagram. Do I pop it up from the bottom?

 

yeah you can just pop it out. thats where my mic extension wire for the gopro comes out of

 

does it pop out from the bottom or top?

 

from the bottom

 

thank you, I’ll try removing it tomorrow.

 

np. i wash my trunk floor, soda/coffee in trash bags after racing can get messy. oily stuff, fuel jugs, tire sprayers.... so for me its better without that cover

 

I was able to pop it out. Ordered a new one since it’s rusted and I’m trying to coat the trunk. Will probably add a drain grommet in the middle somewhere in that plug for hosing out.

 

Would know where to find one for an evo 6? looking for a replacement for the same drain plug.
