So about four days ago i went to shake out my floor mats and my driver's side carpet was wet, i figured it might have been just a little moisture trapped under my mat since snow season so i sucked it up with my shop vac and moved on. I left my floormats out to wash them and the next day my carpet was wet again. I pulled my carpet up and found that the pad underneath was completely soaked. When i was done sucking all the water out there was about three inches of water in the bottom of my shop vac. I can't tell where it's flowing down from, but it's not on the passenger's side, and i have had my cab lights off a couple times in the last year, but i think they're sealed pretty well and my headliner's not wet at all. I have the carpet up and a fan on the pad right now cuz the last thing i want is mold in my truck. Any help would be greatly appreciated and would help ease a little stress as i'm thinking about this day and night. haha -Garrett

Make sure that big rubber plug in the fire wall is in tight,i have alot of stuff running thru mine that was added and sometimes mine popes out and i have to put it back in.otherwise not to many holes in the firewall i dont believe.I have seen the windshields leak and leak down the inside of the firewall but not alot. I wish you luck.

Not sure im just trying to come up with some kind of idea.it either that or remove the front seats and center console pull back the carpet and juke and get the hose out have some one spray it and watch for water rolling down.i did have a buddy that had cab lites leaking on a 03 gmc took him 3 trys to get it to stop leaking

I had a tough time finding a leak in mine after I bought it. Cab lights, windshield, etc all weren't the cause. Mine was the back window hadn't been sealed correctly from the factory.
