Leak behind front drivers side seat

Since everyone was helpful the last time around maybe you all can help me with my next SVX issue.
When it rains I am getting water behind the front drivers seat on the floor. There is no visisble water coming in through the window's or the door.

Any ideas ??

Sounds like a sunroof drain tube has popped out of its fitting behind the trim plastic

The drain could also be clogged which is more likely. The drains are fitted pretty tightly, so it's unlikely that one would pop out over time. Locate the drain holes in the rain tray and blow them out with compressed air.

Re: Leak behind front drivers side seat

Sounds like leaks are somewhat common with our cars I have a somewhat similar issue, only mine is leaking at the front of the seatbelt track. Anyone have any ideas what could cause this? I also had a trunk full of water when I first got the car back in October, but nothing since I drained it. Could this be related?
