Ok update on this the rear driver side of the boot the headlong is wet and dripping near the rear fuse box - any ideas? As a temp fix when the rain stops I was going to try duct taping the gps unit? Current stable:

Morning got up early (in a rage about this) had a look it’s not touching and as I have deployable it looked like a massive ball ache before work - so had an idea rather using are to blow it clear (which I understand is a no no) I got the dyson out and fashioned a pipe to it with gaffa tape and I manage to suck enough crap out to then be able to blow it clear and out a couple of kettles of water down. Result! Current stable:
