loook it's kinda silly but i bought new OEM mk1 drain pipes.. so no more leaks. i hope.

the proper stufff that go's from fat to thin pipe.

I can get the end in to the back of the car door through the hole, but the hole close to the engine side (front of door) for the life of me i cant get it in.

i tryed shaving a bit of pipe of hot water, soap, silicon spray..

still cant get her through..

i cant think of a way to pull her through that hole.

making me go nuts.. helpppppppppp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm suprised nobody has answered as this is definately the place for "done that been there".

Me - I haven't a clue what you are talking about! Pic might help...

Is the hole bare metal or have you made it bigger and fitted a rubber grommet ?

WD40 will lube the rubber enough for you to slide it through, provided that the whole/tube is the correct size. even if its tight this should help.
