Another water leak.. need some input please

[rhyno811]

So my 78 malibu 2dr is leaking all over the place and I need some advice on pin pointing them.

1. Pass side front pillar has leak about half way down that drips on my door panel armrest and its pretty steady... Windshield or door seals?

2. Driver side rear pillar (between quarter window and rear windshield) has 2 spots I'm seeing drip about 3/4s up the pillar and about half way. Rear windshield and quarter glass seals?

Floors are not wet (except for the dripping off the door panels) and in the back it is soaking my back seat. What do you guys think?

That's exactly where my '78 monte leaked(back window)... Just bought it and there was a rust spot in flat area of top corner of trunk(under where trunk lid shuts)... Also traced it to same side rust in 1/4 panel that was bondoe'd beyond belief... I'd first take window trim off and see how old/cracking sealer looks... Mine was a botched job done at some point... Good luck... My floor pans were rotted as well, into a frame off now..

Yeah this is my daily so I can't really pull windows out and stuff. Gonna bring it somewhere to have all the glass resealed.

you take the window trim out first if anything you can get some polyurethane window sealer caulking and patch it up if necessary until you can get some time to take care of it the right way

Yeah I thought about that but the leaks are strange.. It might not be the front windshield.. Not sure if there is way for water to get in from the drip rails? Its leaking from close to the top of the pillar then running down and dripping onto the armrest of the door panel.. Looks like its from behind the door seal? But they are newer and perfectly sealed. I dunno where its coming from

Time to break out the garden hose and a flashlight.
