Default did you recentely install a stereo or boost gauge, etc?

Either way check all the rubber grommets near the firewall in the engine bay. I had the same problem and i found there was a leak because of a speaker wire i was running near the ECU box, the grommet didnt seal properly after running the wire through it. The water would run down my dead pedal, along the side of the floor and pool up on the driver side rear seat. Many hours later i had to rip up some carpet and put a heating lamp in there to soak it all up. Hope this helps.

Default Pull off your door panels and check to make sure the

"rain coats" Ie, the foam liner things are intact and in place.

Next thing is to check the bottoms of the doors to make sure the drains there aren't blocked.

Then check the sunroof drains...

Default Do you have a sub/amp installed?

If you do and you put the power cord through the access of the hood latch cable, that is the cause.

If not it is the sunroof drains.
