Its leaking right above the drivers seat, the sun shade was went too. Its not terrible yet, but i want it fixed before it gets worse. And I also have to the fabic on my sun shade too.

any help or direction will be greatly appreciated.

Driver side drain plug is probably cracked and is letting water leak through your headliner and visor. It will require the removal of the headliner and board. I would go ahead and replace all 4. If one is shot they will all eventually leak.

it could be the drain line is clogged up behind the wheelwell there is a little nipple it gets clogged up with sand dirt ect from the drain line and it could backing up and leaking like my ssei did i would try checking that first since it a lot easier to pop off the plastic well than dropping the headliner just a thought good luck!

Check for plugged drains or disconnected drains. Here is a good write up for them: http://www.pontiacbonnevilleclub.com/fo ... f68cba814e

I suggest you drop the headliner and inspect all the drains and the frame.
