Fixes the issue with the wet passenger floor board / water coming through the fan. Redirects water away from the blower hole into the drain area instead. Keeps functionality of “fresh air” input.
Prototype made, currently being 3D-printed.

awsome! cant wait to see some pics
I don’t want to post pix of the prototype just yet because I’m not sure the design works. Once it arrives I’ll post pix of it installed and discuss findings.
Prototype arrives Monday.
Part arrived today and works great! It just needs a few tweaks and some extensions.
The part fits over the left rib and inside the right channel, so it doesn’t slide around. I dumped water all over it and no drips went inside the blower hole. The part is angled so water flows away. So it works! It needs to be extended in a few areas. Some double sided tape would also be a good idea to help secure it to the channel and rib.
I received the 2nd prototype and unfortunately it needs further tweaks. I don’t want to remove that black cover that the part fits in, so it makes taking dimensions a bit more difficult. I think this third tweak will be final though. I took a lot of pictures, and will post them soon.
I’m interested in this as mu car leaks in this area. Please keep us posted.
Thanks,

nice work, I always wanted to fabricate like a half gable type of sheild
I have the part but I’ve been sick the past few days so I haven’t had the ability to test fit it. I need a time machine to let me work in a time void.
