What I did find was that the leak was coming in through the windshield wiper motor seal and traveling through the inside of the dash to the passenger side floor board. I removed the wipers and the cowl vent grill and saw that the rubber gasket/seal was completely rotted out. A new one and silicone fixed it.


Im not 100% sure where the leak is coming from, i may go pop the cowl off right now actually and see but when we had a really heavy rain the water was running down the antenna wire... I couldnt see up there to know for sure where it was coming from but i should know in a bit. Oh and i do have a picture of what happened to the floor.
