i have a leak coming from my driver side i think it might be the sunroof drain pipe blocked or split, how do i get the interior A Frame pannel off, does the dash have to come out, has anyone had a leak there????
If it's not broke, fix it until it is...........

easy way to check is to open sunroof and pour some water down the drain see if it comes out the cill

the A frame trim can be taken out with out removing the dash ...been ages since I did it but recall it just pops off at the top then slide it up

middle of the scuttle inside the engine bay ...usually get blocked and then the scuttle fills with water and leaks down through the heater air intake

but it usually the passenger side that get wet ...door seal, or the seal around the mirror are common for a leak ...as is a hole through the bulkhead or even a missing grommet or someone fitting something and needing a wire through and drills a hole and dont fit one
