what i mean was that they had just fixed the roof marker lights because of the noise and maybe put it on wrong, and i was wonering why there is water in all the door jams (between front and back door, etc)

The last photo (not the Candybar one http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif ) doesn't look right. There shouldn't be a gap like that. My center marker light unit is completely flush with the pillar units.
I think this is the cause the water pooling in the door jam. I think you're going to have water leaks if it remains like that.

its not as big of a gap as it looks in the picture, but the other side is flush, and it did it there too, so idk..

I don't have the lights, and I don't get water that far into the jamb. It must be from the lights I would think. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif

Well I can tell you from first hand experience that the water leak is headed rite towards the BCM module.I had the same problem they found a pool of water in the same spot.That leaked fried 2 Bcm Modules within a 2 week period I wouldnt wait around to get it fixed.They did finally fix leak and all is well so far.

I believe they all get water in the door jambs, mine does. You have water in your rear door jambs also, which have nothing to do with the roof marker lights. Whether or not it could cause damage, I can't answer that. Whenever I wash mine, the last thing I do is open all of the doors and wipe them out.

True, I always get some moisture in the jambs but I never pay attention to how much. I always open all the doors and give them a wipe. I would take that into the dealer and have them check it out. If they installed the marker lights then they should accept it under warranty.

Yep, that is normal. I get water in my door jams too and don't have any roof marker lights.
I only notice it after washing the car or having it sit out in heavy rain, but it's no big deal to me since it doesn't get inside to the interior.
PS NICE H3 KLINT!

Its clearly out side the seal that seals the interior of the auto . Any car would get water there in a high preasure wash . IMO
By the way that red H3 is just like mine http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Hey
My H3 has been in the dealership since Wednesday. One of the top rails is warp and the other has a 3/8'' gap where it meets the windshield molding. I was told by a GM Manager at the Shievport La Plant that these rails are a known problem and to take it back to the dealer. The dealer order me two new replacement rails. Yes I get water, dirt and salt between my doors and sills. I have to include this places each time I wash my vehicle. I do not have light bars.
