Short of removing the headliner, I can't find the stupid rear sunroof drains. I'm assuming this is where water is getting in to my rear driver side footwell. The water doesn't make it to the front but it is enough to keep shorting out my passenger windows and door locks. Can someone please post a pic of where it's located?

Your reply takes me to a reply quote for some reason.... The butyl that adheres the water deflectors in the doors tends to dry out over time, allowing water to pass through.

If ur R/R door has the inner liner(plastic)still connected to the door, i highly suggest checking the pass. side FRONT drain hole. It just may be leaking from the front & running to the back UNDER the carpet.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. All of the water pools behind the driver seat in the rear passenger footwell. I don't get any water in the front driver, front passenger or rear passenger side. Only behind the driver's seat. All my doors are still Factory sealed.

Too late and too much shtuff in the trunk to take pics, lol! Hope this helps; Drains are located on each corner of the sunroof pan (4 total). The front drain lines go down the A pillars and exit at the rear of the front wheel wells. The rear drain lines go down the C pillars and exit at the rear wheel wells. The front drains are easily accessible with the sunroof open, gently push air down here. The rear drains aren't accessible from the top without dropping the sunroof assembly, so you'll have to go into the trunk. The drain line disconnects about halfway down (behind trunk liner, near wheel well), push air up and down here. FWIW, I do this every fall once I'm done using the sunroof. I also take the glass panel out to condition the rubber seal and vacuum the sunroof pan with a home made adapter. It may be overkill, but it doesn't leak anymore, lol!

Tigger, you're a life saver... I was going to take the interior apart at the B pillar to look for the stupid drain. It made sense for it to be in the B pillar because that's basically where the back of the sunroof ends. But, I have to remove the entire headliner because I opened up the car and the entire back end after the sunroof was sagging... just my luck of course. Will I be able to get at the lines easily with the headliner off?

Yeah, with the headliner out, you'll be able to see the entire assembly.
