If you have a sunroof, the interior could be getting wet from there.   I 
believe the sedan roof drains go down through the B pillars, not sure.
 
Check the seals around the taillights.  The chaulk used can get hard  and 
then the get into the trunk.  May sound strange, but have some one get  in the 
trunk with a flashlight, and then run water over the trunk area.   They can find 
where the water is coming from.

I'm the  proud new owner of a 90 20v sedan.  I'm getting water in the trunk 
and a  little bit in the back seat.  The car is not rusted thru so I assume I  
should be looking for blocked drains.  I looked high and low and couldn't  
find anything. Can anyone give me a hint?

I did  wash the car yesterday and removed about a pound of gunk from between 
the  trunk seal and the rear window.  Yech, that was nasty stuff.  But  while 
I was using the dremel to replace the fuel pump mount I got another inch  of 
water in the trunk so I assume it is backed up in a drain that I can't  find.

Thanks
