vacuumed up all the water filling the spare tire tub following this weekend's downpour - carpool material. Could the sunroof drain tubes really drain this much while closed? Or maybe a split under the roof channel? Literally drips of the package shelf post behind the right rear seat. WT trunk liner actually catches some!

Sounds like a leak somewhere. If you're feeling brave, it's not that much work to drop the headliner - there are two pop rivets securing it to the roof (very easy to see if you are looking up from the trunk). Then you remove the C pillar, B pillar, and A pillar trim and it'll just drop down. Removing the A and C pillars is a nightmare because of all the weirdly angled clips, but the B pillar is like three clips and a T50 bolt. I just did this on Saturday while soundproofing the roof of the car.

Also, feel for moisture in your rear footwells. When I had the leaky sunroof, it was also dumping in there and I ended up getting black mold growing under the carpet, which is a nightmare to take out.

I've had this in my car. Turned out my hatch wasn't centered so it left a gap on the gasket. You gotta loosen up the hatch bolts and adjust it, trust me it took me a good 1.5 hrs of fiddling to get it centered just right. Then I had to adjust the striker a bit further inward for it to close tighter. After that I found my tail lights were still leaking a tiny bit so fixed that. And then I found out the body shop had plugged up my drains with glue so the sunroof was dripping down the sides into the rear passenger foot wells on both sides

While I wait for a replacement turbo, I found a used Schroth QuickFit Pro harness for the driver (along with Boomba Brake Deflectors) for $380 locally. Installed the harness this evening to test fit it, and boy does it feel good.

I shall not slide around in the seat now when on track/autoX. Brake Deflectors will get installed for actual track days so those are sticking in the box for now.
