Dang, I just bought this car with 50k miles, the mileage is "slightly" better than my Landcruiser. But when it rains water enters through the roof somewhere, I assume the sunroof, and ends up in the vanity light above the drivers side visor, then drips onto the driver's seat (or my lap). The first time this happened I made sure the gasket was clear of debris and shopped vaced all around to clean up pine straw etc. It rained again today inside and outside of the car. Any ideas?

Clear the sunroof drains and clip the lower edge of the rubber drain exit nipple below the A pillar. These nipples are easily seen with the front doors open. Be careful not to disconnect the drains at the top by blowing air aggressively through them, they're not easy to get back on.
The back drains are underneath the rear bumper but seem to be less of a problem. Best of luck.
