Default Water Leaks... could do without the rust!!

Does anyone have any advice about a water leak in the back of my '96 Disco? I have replaced all the rear window seals and the alpine window seals (not a fun job), but i'm still getting water coming in some where!!! i'm getting tired of stripping the interior and drying it all out/ replacing seals... everytime i "troubleshoot" it with my hose i can't find any leaks, but the next time it rains... walla ... water leakage!

Any Ideas?

Are you sure it is from the rain.
I had a simular problem, water was coming out of my lower vents, take a look at "water on floor" post under discovery section.
I had water all over the front and back from this, of course it leaked more with the A/C on high
I first thought it was from the rain but it was the rainy season when it started to happen. after i clean out the rubber gromet drains it fixed the problem.
Let us know
later

i could be coming up from the floor. we had that problem with the box truck at work. some sort of caulking stuff took care of it.

check the gasket around the fuel pump access plate water seeps there then absorbs into the carpet.
