Question T-Top Leaking???

Have a 02 Trans -Am. The last 2 times it rained my right rear passenger foot area is like a lake!! But the t-top doesnt seem to be leaking and it doesnt look like it is coming in from along the bottom of the door. It starts under the back half of the passenger seat, it almost seems like the water is coming in from under the car? Any help would be great..

I bet your power window motors are weak. If they are the window doesn't seal properly on the weatherstripping. It may not look like water can get in, but with the right force and angle it can. Check it out.
