Another often neglected spot for water entry is around the rather hard rubber seals that surround the wiper spindles, the water then fills the box section below the screen, rotting it in the process (almost invisible till the dash crash pad is out) and finally running down onto the floor.
Because, at least at first, the box below the screen frame is closed off except the ends, most of the water that enters here runs down the A posts behind the trim and you don't see it till it soaks the carpets.
I have a NOS cantrail section (N/S IIRC) if anyone is interested.

Thanks for the suggestions but I don't think you know the lengths I have gone to find this leak. I stripped out the entire interior and removed the screen. Went from top to bottom to find every possible rust hole and welded them up. I have also fixed the potential leak from the wiper spindles and fully sealed the screen.
In my defence I beat the leak into the drivers side but not the passenger side. Somehow it is still getting in. Which makes me suspect something is up with roof. Could be the gutters but I resealed the entire length of those as well.
