How are these routed? I found the outlet, but I've removed a lot of the interior and still haven't found them.

I have a leak and it's only in the passenger front and rear floor board. Assuming it's the drain hoses, since I can't see a leak when I'm at the car wash. I've already took an air gun to them, sound clear, nothing came out, so I guess theres a leak in a hose some where.

The hoses go into the 4 corners of the sunroof. The front ones go down the roof pillars and into the cowl. The rear go down the sail panel and out the sides of the rear bumper. You will have to pull the headliner down to get at them. Getting the headliner out is not too big of a deal.

If the sunroof hoses were leaking I think you would see something on the headliner. I doubt it would end up on the floor. You might want to check the drain hose on the air conditioner. If that got blocked or knocked off it would end up on the passenger side.

a/c doesn't work, there is no sign of wet spots on the head liner, I'm guessing it's dripping down the side through the panels....

Sometimes to find leaks you have to take some inside panels out and play with a garden hose until you can get it to leak.

I found a leak, but it's on the drivers side not the passenger. The rear side window had no nuts holding it in. Lazy ass body shop. It's been leaking air since I bought it but not water. It's like there isn't a window there. Previous owner told me there was a leak. 2 years later and I finally get water on the floor? Strange, it rains a lot in oklahoma, and it never gets garage time.

I pulled the carpet up and put an industrial fan in there and jacked the front end to where the water would flow to the back.
