Honda Element Cabana Drainage The Honda cabana, though not quite weatherproof, does a decent job of keeping out light rain. But in a heavy or prolonged storm, water eventually finds its way to the bottom of the closed cabana and forms a pool, weighing down the liftgate and causing it to droop. As a quick expedient, I cut a very small X in the fabric at the lowest point. It has worked ever since; any water that gets in can drain, and the cut is too small to allow insects to enter. Flapping Another problem is that in windy conditions, the lower edge of the cabana can make quite a racket. Grommets solved that problem, allowing me to guy the corners with bungees. I made holes for the grommets by heating a center punch with a torch and poking it through the nylon fabric. That keeps the edges from fraying.
