Looks like you could hook up your hydroponic system to that!While going through my older pictures, I found one of the lower drain tube of the Safari windows, that I removed to try to located where my water infiltration comes from. Definitely NOT from that tube!

The water on the footwell didn't come from (removing) the tube.
Shouldn't there be a rubber "o" ring on that connector to achieve a water tight joint??While going through my older pictures, I found one of the lower drain tube of the Safari windows, that I removed to try to located where my water infiltration comes from. Definitely NOT from that tube!

Ohhh that could be cool. Extra storage/etc in those ceiling spaces, neat idea. FWIW I ended up adding the windows to my pre-order, still not really sure if I want them (coastal SC is a sub-tropical environment and it rains a decent amount) but I waned it for resale too. Not that I'm planning on getting rid of it anytime soon, but if I have to haul it 5 hours to dealer too many times it's gone.I didnt opt the windows because I couldn't afford them. I would however llove a map pocket to install in safari window area one day, hoping after market comes to the table. Those with safari windows, I'm sure could easily adapt something to install when not using the windows.
I don't think it really is necessary, because there is, if I remember well another plastic (rubber?) connection point at the upper sideShouldn't there be a rubber "o" ring on that connector to achieve a water tight joint??
Have you queried the rope length for the winch with your dealer? I've read its 10M on UK builds but possibly longer for Oz.- Preferred to put $3k towards the cost of the winch
I was doing some minor modification on my safari windows to stop it rattling when open and also cleaning out the (safari roof) rain channels. There is surprisingly a lot of dust, pollen and debris. Water collects in the rain channels and flows out through the drain hole at the front. Mine doesn’t leak and works great and would definitely spec this option purely for light and ventilation for my dogs.While going through my older pictures, I found one of the lower drain tube of the Safari windows, that I removed to try to located where my water infiltration comes from.

Absolutely right, but concerning my water infiltration and "glued hole" I visually checked it and it looks OK. But I'll check it again when I get my car back from my dealer.My observation, it is possible that this drain hole looks like it’s glued in using black silicone. This is a possible water entry point if the glue has failed. As well the hoses attached to it.
Thats a beefy drain tube. Probably a good thingWhile going through my older pictures, I found one of the lower drain tube of the Safari windows, that I removed to try to located where my water infiltration comes from. Definitely NOT from that tube!

Agree just like my old Disco.Ohhh that could be cool. Extra storage/etc in those ceiling spaces, neat idea.
