My '99 panniers leaked a bit too, and I cured it by putting a bead of silicon
around the seam where the plastic that holds the weather seal meets the body of
the pannier. If you open your bag and look about an inch into it from the
opening you should see the seam I'm talking about. I haven't seen the bags on 
the '03 leak yet, but having just washed 'er up a little I better check!
