[DML] Water Leaks...again. Any advice/ideas?

[Patrick Conlon <PRC1216@xxxxxxx>]

If you all remember, I was the water leak king a few years ago,  
always posting about this leak and that leak on vin 1880.  Well I  
still have them, and even Dave Bauerle's shop had no luck, yet  
stopped one coming in under the passenger door (which I wasn't aware  
I had).  They thought that fixed it, yet I still have them after  
washing the car yesterday, and mainly when I run my hand under the  
driver side carpet after washing and slide it towards the center  
console area, the closer I get to the console, the wetter the carpet is.

At the advice of Ken K. I am going to make a deflector for the big  
opening/drain on the outside of the car in front of the windshield on  
the passenger side.  Hopefully somehow water is coming in there, and  
creating the deflector will shoot the water down farther away from  
the area where it might be leaking in.  I am sick of breathing the  
smell of damp carpet.

I have performed the factory water leak bulletins, caulked the t- 
panel, replaced door seals, etc, etc, etc.  Does ANYONE (vendors  
especially) recall anyone else having this problem in the past 24  
years, and can anyone else give me any other ideas as to where to  
look in the event that this deflector doesn't do the trick?  Keep  
your fingers crossed that it does, I have faith in Ken K.
