Default passenger side floor wet....any help on spots to look?

i searched through the threads, looking at window seal was one but I sprayed for awhile seems to be okay from there...
any other places that may allow water in the front passenger seat in my coupe?

Thanks in advance

Default Sunroof drains.... a grommet in the windage-tray along topsite of firewall could have deteriorated

door seals/weatherstripping? heatercore? could it possibly be traveling from somewhere else and ending up on the Pax side?

Where specifically is it wet? the WHOLE passenger floor area? just the rear.. just the under-seat section.. just the front footwell?

Default I had an A/C drain tube that was failing to blow out condensation

and water leaked into the front and rear passengener's footwell once, BUT, the A/C was also steaming sometimes. do you even notice any steam?

Default Search my AID for "leak" and you'll find a small group of threads devoted...

to chasing down a leak(s) in my coupe. The short of it is this: it ended up being the weather stripping that attaches to the A pillar, over the top of both side windows and down the back. This peice has foam on the back and the rivets had been drilled out to replace the windshield. If you'd had the windshield replaced there's a good chance they didn't put hte rivets back in the way they were suposed to.

Default Could be the A/C drainage tube that is blocked, so the built up condensation.....

will pour out on the passenger side of the car. The tube is under the car and looks like it belongs in a fish tank under the passenger side door IIRC.....

hope that helps.
