Some Info and Pictures of Sunroof Drain Outlets and 1 Question
Just cleaned up the front drain hose and there sure was loads of debris (sand/dried leaves/nuts and bolts too) To access the front outlet simply remove fenders and voila here they are. In the picture you'll notice how it has "sunk" inwards which effectively allows water to puddle in the front. So clean them up real good and you're good to go.
My 1 question is, where the heck is the outlet for the rear drain? I'ce searched the rear wheel well and nothing. Could some kind soul help out.
Cheers.
Workshop is no help either.

Look at the back of the car, under the little plastic trim triangle pieces. There should be one on each side of the car. They are held on by 3 screws. The screw closest to the front of the car should screw into a little white insert thing. Check to see if the rubber seal is still there. If not, try some rtv sealant there.
My car leaked CONSTANTLY back there. I could never figure it out. It would feel up my spare tire area, under the bins, and behind the back of my seats. All of that would be soaked after a good day of rain. I finally came upon a thread about it. So check those little white pieces of plastic that the screw goes into. There should be a black rubber seal/gasket under it.

Thanks gremlin. You're referring to the triangular piece thats accessible when the trunk is opened right? I'm gonna seal that ****** and see what happens.

Yeah underneath that thing. It's the white screw holder clip (closest to the front of the car) that just pops in there. Be gentle with it and pry it up, and apply some rtv on both sides. That's what I did at least and I haven't had any leaks since.

My '93 RX7 drips water from the sunroof onto the passenger seat when it rains. Can someone help me find the drain openings in the roof? Are there 2 or 4 of them?
Thanks - Jim
