Rainwater on drivers's side floor 200 1989

Grommets on firewall.

Opening on side of car near ECU to the right of front passenger's legs.

Seal around wiper motor.

Windshield.

Seat belt anchor base near floor, on side of car, to the right of rear passenger-side passenger's right foot. If the car is parked pointed downhill, this might be the source.

Take out the felt liner above front passenger's knees and remove glovebox. Remove passenger front seat, remove hard flexible plastic weatherstripping along front edge of door opening, remove side plastic kick panel, pull back the carpet, lie down on your back with your head under the dash with a good flashlight and watch every potential spot carefully while your helper sprays the car down from every possible angle.

If the leak(s) aren't up front somewhere, remove the plastic door thresholds so you can lift the carpet more and expose the inside face of the rocker panel area. If your rocker panel drainholes are plugged, it might leak where the seat belt achors to the body. Mine did.

Good luck.
