      new trunk seal, new seals around tail lights, check drains behind carpeting in both corners of the car. make sure there is no holes in drip rail.

        Looks like you need some good caulk.

        Where's bluntiepoo when you need him?

          Sorry, now I understand, trunk. Check sunroof drains as well. Mars sure there is no rust or rot wear water can enter.

            ever since I got it the trunk is leaking really bad. I got it in the summer so i didnt notice it. Since it started raining its been geting worse. Even when it doesnt rain there is still alot of mist on trunk lid and carpet.

              Move to Phoenix:jk:?

              This place is like catholic school, 2/3 of the students smoke weed on a daily basis, but the faculty seems to convince the outside world that drugs are just in the other schools, the resident pot dealer thinks he's cool because he has the originality to call anyone he doesn't like a homosexual, and most of the little children follow him like sheep, then there's the few with brains, you hardly ever hear from them, perhaps don't even know they exist, but they get all the sh!t done.

                  antenna grommet is another likely culprit

                    Does it leak more on one side then the other? or you could have your mom sit in the trunk with a flashlight while you run a garden hose over the trunk...

                              Ok it could be many things. Let's narrow down if it's right side or left side first and then we can figure where to start.

                              There's many things that could cause it like people have mentioned from antenna, c-pillar trim grommet, sunroof drain to even trunk/trunk light seals. Give us something to work with first :)
