Last year some scumbag broke in to my car, smashing the drivers window. I got a replacement window from a scrappy n successfully installed it. All is well now apart from water gets in to the drivers footwell from the bottom of the door when it really pisses it down. I think it might be because I removed the sticky foam panels from the cutouts on the inner door panel & didn't replace them with anything. I know the door drain hole is definitely clear so can only assume water runs down the inside panel & though the cutouts. Does this sound possible? Does anyone have a suggestion on what to use in place of the foam that's no longer there's? Thanks guys.

This is a super common issue on 306s. You have two choices. A quick trip to peugeot and order the inner door seal. Or a little cut out in the door rubber allows it to drain out and not into the foot well. Ill take a picture of mine for you

Right where that little dimple is. Doesnt have to be as wide as that though. My door seal was a bit ratty anyhow. Hope this helps

The weather sheet is no longer available.
You can get sticky back closed cell foam from ebay to plug the holes and tape a bit of plastic over the back of the door speaker to sort it.

I've tried gaffa tape and it's no good. The glue dries up and turns to powder.
