Has anyone ever had this problem. I was driving the other day in a light rain and it began to drip on my left foot that was on the footrest. Not pouring out, but a drip every once in awhile. Haven't drove it in a downpour yet but hopefully it won't be any worse. Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks.
 
Most likely the windshield seal. Second most likely is the sunroof drains.

Try to see if there's any water sitting on the lower part of the windshield seal, adjacent to the dashboard. There are a couple threads on trying to fix this yourself with some sealant. Search around and you'll find them....
 
See the "how to" in my sig to seal the windshield.

Had same problem. Check forum for sunroof drain cleaning. Fixed my problem w weedtrimmer line. no probs since.

They are 2 hole on each corner open the sunroof and clean. The problem solve good luck:clap:
 
You may also have a problem with the little plastic dust covers in the sunroof. My rig was leaking from there, and water would run inside the headliner, down the A-pillar, and down onto the footwell on the DS.

Worth checking there while you are at it. The replacement parts are about $12 a piece list, different part numbers appear for different years.

63255 COVER, SLIDING ROOF GUIDE RAIL, RH
63255‑60010 (01/1990 - 10/1995) 1 $12.06
63255‑60011 (11/1995 - 12/1997) 1 $11.47

63256 COVER, SLIDING ROOF GUIDE RAIL, LH
63256‑60010 (01/1990 - 10/1995) 1 $12.06

So far my rig has been dry all winter on the inside, knock on wood, after so much fun chasing leaks last Winter and Spring.

Are the parts now the same for all years of 80's, 63256-60011 and 63255-60011?
