I posted a thread a while back about how behind my passanger side gets wet when it rains. Seems to be a common problem. I cleaned out the drains for the hatch. Don't know if it fixed it. It hasn't gotten wet since, but I don't know if I've left it in the rain either.

I cleaned out the drains in the hatch when I first got the car. I just check to make sure It was not clogged. I even put compressed air to it. Maye I need to check the window.

If you run your a/c and no water is dripping out from the condensation overflow it's probably runnin' back in the car

I haven't ever tried to locate one on a 3KGT, but, it should come through the firewall on the passenger side just below the dash somewhere. That's where it was on the car that did it to me anyway.
