Sealing the front of the Speed sensor?

[TopherSho]

When it rains and i'm at 60+ mph i get the "Cruise is unavailable" message pretty frequently, when it is dry it never happens.  I have been toying with the idea of sealing up the front...

Thoughts?

I think it more has to do with it not being able to sense through the rain (thinking it's an object). You can't put anything in front of the sensor, or it will think it's an object and you won't be able to use the CC

I was thinking not so much of covering the whole unit but waxing the 'edges' where it seems to clip on.. it used to behave in the rain but seems to be getting worse over time.  Probably does not help i live in oregon
