I had rusted through Holes in the area that the Hood Springs are in and the Drains that would have drained that area were clogged. The Water that leaked in from the front ended up inside under the Rear Mats.

The first thing I did was to remove the Floor Plugs. That allows most of the Water to Drain out. Water does not seem to come back in through the Plugs unless I was fording some deep Water that was above the Plugs.

A common place for leaks in the rear is under the rear Window rubber where there is often holes rusted through.

Where does Water go when the Sunroof Drains are plugged?
