Hi Blujeep

Firstly does your jeep have a electric aerial if so read on.......

I had the same problem - footwells were wet .

I pulled all lower trim off and carpet and tested windows, seals etc, only to find that the rubber grommet for the electric aerial wires which pass through the guard had shrunk and was allowing water inside the cabin.

You can test this by removing the inside drivers footwell trim and also remove the inside wheel well were you will see the electric aerial and wires and grommet etc now this is were you need another person and a flashlight and some water.

Now get inside the drivers footrest with the flashlight and you will be able to see the wires from the aerial if you get in there on an angle, the 2nd person using the hose with water directs water onto the aerial grommet and if there is a leak you will see it.

Well if its not this then maybe this post will help someone else.
