Cab Water Leak?

Hi Ruben,
I had a serious water leak when my '95 CC was new. 5-6 trips to dealer, new
windshield, new rear slider ,
new carpet, new door seals, lots of caulk in every hole in the firewall.
Finally got fixed when they got tired of seeing me, gave me keys to a
rental, took the bed off and sealed a seam under the rear window. Water
was running in the channels on the top of the cab, around the rear window
and into the cab under the window.. it pooled under the jump seat on the
driver side and the carpet would soak up when it sloshed around. Soaked it
al the way to the front.
While I had the carpet and passenger seat out I did find a leak by driving
through a car wash that had a under car wash sprayer.. leaked a little
around the shifter boot.

Now it's leaking again somewhere.
