there's an inner panel inside the sunroof assembly (not the headliner
covered part) which is attached at the corners to the sunroof. it
slides back and forth with the sunroof but remains in a fixed position
relative to the sunroof itself.

its purpose appears to be to direct water into the side channels then
into the drains. if it comes detached (it does when the arms break) it
stays rearward after first sunroof closure. this means that water now
goes any where it damn well pleases (like in our car) instead of
harmlessy being guided down the drains.

check to see that the little arms in the front corners aren't broken.
