Default leaking rear passenger side?

Noticed some water.pretty saturated into the rear floormats specifically on the passenger side. Wondering if anyone has experienced this and if so, what the solution was. I know the sunroof has some issues but was able to troubleshoot using this forum, so wondering if someone has suggestions. Not sure where it is sourcing from other than not the sunroof. First noticed in a heavy heavy slashing rain but this 2006 h3 is new to me so most of the details are anecdotal from previous owners.

Thanks!

get inside and offer some kid 2 bucks if he can get water in through the door seal with a hose.

I was looking for ideas on what else it might be, wasn't sure if this was an area that could be hit by a sunroof leak so id like input on all options. Thanks for rubbing it in my face though, it is my first post ever so this is a great way to get new people involved in the hummer community, trying to make them feel stupid and all. Super helpful, hope this isn't a sign of what senior members are like on this forum.

there are 4 drains in your sunroof one on driverside front and one rear same on passenger side. i had the get drenched everytime it rained. Found out about the drains. using 9 ft of trimmer cord from lawn trimmer, a half inch drill bit. and pliers i solved problem. first. find you 2 drain plugs / grommets on your fire wall, or they maybe in you fender well. pull them out ream with 1/2 in drillbit opening whole up more. replace. same with back each side has a rubber grommet inn fenderwell. remove drill out replace it may be smaller . then open sun roof standing on seats faceing forward use flashlight to find th holes in the corners pass trimmer line down thru 3 to 4 xs the use a cup of water to see if its draining. repeat for passenger side. back holes are a little harder to find but do it and you wont have another wet floor. take your passenger side kickk plate of check your connections for corrosion. if they are corroded check your brain box if its all corroded youll have to replace all the wiring boxes and your brain. and as for the no starts switching out 66 for 78 those are RELAYS not FUSES #3is your fuel fuse 66 is your fuel relay
