Default Windscreen leak

I have the TSB regarding the sealant to fix the leaks around the windshield. However, the photos are not very good and I cannot tell if the upper pillar is where I leaking. Do the below photos show a possible source of leak? My front seat floors get wet after a rain.

Or, any other ideas about where the leak can be coming from?

There is a curved rubber piece at the top corner of the windshield, warm it up (hot water or hot weather) roll it back. There was both a huge cavity and pine needles behind mine. Filled with silicone, put the rubber back in place with a bead underneath. No leaks since.

Also check your windshield cowl, it should be tight the windshield and intact no cracks. You can get water through that area to the passenger side.

So these pics are up top, looking down the A pillar, right?

I had a leak in that spot right after a new windscreen installation. Clear silicon under the rubber worked for me. I cleaned it out first with a toothbrush and compressed air.
