I have a problem!

I have just noticed the rear footwells around the B Pillar's is wet! - Its the first time i have noticed this but we have had some heavy rain over the last couple fo days.

What are the likely places for it to be coming in? If i seal up the sunroofs with some Silicone from the inside will it cure it?

sunroofs and alpine lights are usual suspects

Can these be sealed up from the inside to stop water even getting near to the drainholes? Anyone had experience of this?

1) No. Seal them from the outside.
2) Yes. All of us. Have a look through the millions of previous posts.

I didnt mean experience of leaking sunroofs. I have looked at all the posts already. I know its a common problem.

I meant - experience of sealing the sunroofs. Im not fussed about using them so they can be sealed for all i care! - Normal Clear bathroom Silicone does the job i assume?

Yup or Black silicone looks better.
