    Anyone install the OEM roof rack on their 2nd gen DC and have a water leak by the driver side A-pillar holy sh!t handle and B-pillar water making its way to my driver side seatbelt. It sucks putting on a wet seatbelt. Lol

    I installed the rack myself, I put the little foam washer gaskets "seals" that came in the kit.

    However, I DID NOT put sealant on the fasteners... I hope that's not creating my water leak(s).

    Thanks!

    Make sure the mastic washers and the rubber base pad are seated correctly. Another option is to replace the mastic washers with neoprene washers from Home Depot (I had to do this when I bought my rack used).
