I've attached a picture of my passenger front sunroof drain when I first discovered it was leaking.
I have just checked that now, both drains are emptying nicely but were not blocked up, the wheel well is dry, under the seat is dry, i will do the mod while its all apart though.
The rubber door seal on the actual rear door was not seated properly, so thats back in place now, i have ordered some light gaskets, and am going to remove all the sealant from the lamps, its very unsightly

You say "both drains".
There's a drain at each corner of the sun roof and although it's the front two that seem to be the main offenders, the same dodgy connection arrangement applies to all four. So it may be worth a precautionary check that the two rear drains are flowing freely by directing some water down them via a tube.
