Default My hartop roof leaks?

I picked up my 04 back in July. It's a daily driver. I noticed a few weeks ago that I have a large water stain on my headliner just behind the drivers seat.
I got in the car this week after a 5 inch rainstorm and the headliner was soaked in that area. My roof is leaking. How do you fix a leak in a hardtop. I suspect it is leaking at the roof seams.
Does anyone else have this problem?
I sold my 89 Corvette to buy my Crossfire. It was worth it!
Thanks in advance for any insight to the leak.

Those strips of trim in the roof seams are easily removable.
Read this thread and you will see how they are removed.
Then you can inspect and seal any leak.

Could be also the weatherstrip seal itself, where the door glass seals at the body, I know when they fixed mine for a water leak at the front of the window area, on the drivers door. Well they fixed that leak but it created another one in the back by the corner of the rear window area but it was all assorbed by the headliner, right above your head and back some, but still a fairly large area was wet, they ended up replacing that seal like three times before they fixed the water leak and also got a new headliner of course under warranty.

My guess would be the rubber boot for the electrical wires has come adrift. With the hatch open, check the rubber boot at the top of the frame to be sure it is seated properly.
