Passenger side Water Leaking.

Ok. Question. My pass floor is soaking wet to the point if that sponge was not under the passenger foot I would be in 3 -4" of water after a heavy rain. I cleared out the sunroof drains and plugged the clips under the windshield cowl that is said to leak water. I still am getting leaks. Here are some photos of where it is coming in. Anyone else tackle this? I am at the point of giving up on this car I have owned since new. All other issues I can deal with, I even was gonna fix the rear fender well rust. This is frustrating. I am ready to use my fingers and some RTV to try to seal it from the inside but that looks like it will do nothing.

I wanna guess and say that it's the windshield leaking from the cowl or the bottom sides into the pass floor or the moonroof leaking water draining into the side pillars on downward. check and goodluck.

Definately not the sunroof as i can get it to leak by pouring water on the right side windshield. I plugged the holes in the cowl and yet it still leaks.

I'm experiencing that on the driver's side and I thinks it's the windshield itself! My car was in volved in 2 accidents with the previous owner and 1 with myself on the left (driver's side).... So during heavy rains the carpet gets wet but on a light rain there's nothing! My windshield is cracked and I believe the sealant has been compromised so a new windshield maybe the solution! Since it'll be sealed in upon installation!
