Re: [DML] Ceiling leaks!!

http://www.dmcnews.com/techmain.htm #12 in the Frame/Body section is the
factory service bulletin on water leaks.

If the leak seems to be at the front of the headliner panels where the sun
visors are, then the likely culprit is the headliner material itself. On
many cars it sticks out into the area where the water drains. Open the door
and look down in the valley between the windshield and the rubber seal
around the door opening. Do you see fuzzy stuff? There's your leak. It
wicks the water right inside. Trim it and caulk it with a 100% silicone
sealant.
