Been cleaning the cerb today and noticed water on the inside of the rear screen.

I lifted the boot so I could see properly and it look like there are two scoops in the body hidden under the bottom screen trim, through which I can see the rear shelf. They are only small, but id never noticed them before.

has everyone else got these?
what are they for? I presume just vents to avoid blowing out the the back screen if at speed with the windows open.

Yep, they are standard. You only power-wash it wrong once!

Afaik they were added later as first cerbs had rear screen blow outs.

Cheers, mines a '97
Should there be any mesh or just an open hole?
looks like there has been some old mastic around the edges, so thought something was missing

A mate of mine has an earlier Cerbera than mine (Mk1) and his has these holes, mine (Mk2) hasn't got them. I thought the very early Cerb's didn't have them (some rear screens blew out) then they were introduced and when the Mk2 came out they were designed out. Not %100 sure though.

Ok and I've never even driven one. Let's do a share one weekend.
