Raining really hard today, noticed leak behind radio. I took off the plastic trim under glove compartment and saw water drip in the very right corner of dash by pass door. Took glove compartment out, still hard to see where it's coming from. Don't know if it's coming from door or windshield. Any ideas?

I just realized that I posted in the wrong forum. Is there a way to get to Tech forum? Sorry.

honda issued a service bulletin on the 3G Accords for the lack of sealing at the body~cowl point on both sides, I did some research and found that 4G Accords had the same problem. So basically there were some issues with the way Honda built the cars, and this particular spot was open to the damage the photos show

You should remove the plastic screen that is under the windshield wiper blades and make sure the drainage dams are not cloged.

Woah... those pics make me sick... now i gotta go over my car and check for rusting. :(
