There is a void inin betweenhe kick panels and the back half of the front
fenders. The water that goes into the scuttle vent is dispensed into this void
by a little rubber tube. I believe the water is intended to find its way out by
seeping inin betweenhe fender and a groove in the rocker panel. That is the way
it is set up on on my plastic scuttle TR6.

I put an extra tube on mine to extend all the way down to the rocker panel so
that speakers (installed by DPDPOn kick panel) wouldn't get wet when I washed
the car.
