Make sure the 4 drains get a good clean. I ended up having to get stiff earthing wire on the end of a drill down them to unblock whatever hard crap was blocking them. The 2 rear ones did not flow at all, and 1 front just dribbled through. I would get water pouring straight in through the sunroof onto the passenger seat, or down onto my leg from the Sun Visor

My drain pipes are all good now. They were all clear anyway only one side of the frames outlet had some dirt so the water must have come thru the rust spots. I used a syringe and got all water running out somewhere. I will also have a look underneath the roof rail. I had it on my V8 that there was some rust as well.
My sun roof window was also not flush with the roof surface, so all that together caused lots of water on the floor
I welded some of the metal in today but still need to grind it down and smoothen everything with car filler.
Made one mistake though: completely forgotten how sensitive the glass is. I had this also on my V8 where the. Weld splatter ruined the rear windows. The splatter lands on the window and melds it slightly so that you see all those small spots. A simple cartboard would have prevented that but simply missed it. Well if all goes wrong I have to change the front window an buy a new one
