Hey, it's me again. Just a suggestion - before you spend money on a seal, why not have a friend over and hose the car down real well (while you sit inside looking for drops of water). Have them force it into all the possible trouble spots. Since your carpet was saturated, you'll probably be able to see it coming in somewhere. Anyway, I've got no clue who has the best price on a seal.

Once again, good luck!

I agree with Dales944. I used a water bottle to squirt water around areas I thought the leak might be coming from. The culprit turned out to be the door seal, near the top rear of the door. When we squirted water at that point the water poured in.
