passenger footwell

p4203:
sorry if this has been asked loads of times but had a quick search and couldn't find anything
 the passenger front footwell  is soaking wet i looked under the dash and i thought it was coming in from the main loom back of the screen washer so i filled that hole up best i could with silicone but it is still leaking
 which other things could it be  :(
a) windscreen
b) sunroof
c) aircon
 any help would be great cause the smeel of the rotting underlay is not good first thing on a morning :D

chuggaman:
id go sunroof

could be coming in from the inner wing if it is rotting under the plastic cover as well

Mark_Sims:
The water does come in from there. What happens is that the water drips into the loom behind the washer bottle. Once in the loom it flows very easily through the grommit and then drips out where the looms bends upwards inside the footwell. You will need to rewrap the loom quite a away back up and also a subsidary loom that joins it, with mine that is where the water dripped. Took me two years to discover that path !

Would it be worth opening the loom and packing it with silicone sealant, or is this either:

a) too hard
or
b) likely to cause more trouble
