    Leak on self-fitted side-window HELLLPPPP

    Tiny tiny small leak coming through, it was a huge storm outside and it’s the first time I’ve seen it. The small hole where the sealant didn’t get to must be letting the rain through. Any small sealant I can use from the outside to get behind the glass?
