Reverse scoops and rain?

Hi, does anyone have any problems with their electrics when it rains with reverse scoops? I'd like one, but didn't think it would be good having the engine rained on!

Thanks, Mit

Mine was fine when it rained.

However, i did leave the under-scoop tray fitted in winter, and removed it in summer
