Rain & bad sunroof = :(

I got out to my car after school and was in a hurry to get to football practice (it was raining). When I got in i noticed that my roof was leaking from near the map light. it was just a small leak so I wiped it up thew a towel over it and went to practice (also outside in the pouring rain ) Needless to say that when pracice was done I was flippin cold and was looking forword to sitting im my heated leather and going back to eat a team potluck meal. When I get there i look at my passenger seat and there is a solid 2 in of water sitting there!!! so i wipe up as much as I could, ran my friends to the meal and went home, kicked my parents out of the garage and parked it. After tearing half the car apart and drying the leather I realized that a drainage hose was cloged. So i tried to blow it out with a air compresser but the hose popped off. tore some more apart and was able to get at the hose enought to blow it again and reconnect it. test ran it and seemed to work OK but im not sure of it was clear enough. got everything back in and blow dried most of the ripples out of the leather. Do you guys think what i did was good enough or should i have done something else?
sorry for the novel. just needed to rant

i had the same problem but luckily the plug was at the end of the drainage hose, rust from the one metal fitting on the entire hose.
