Default Water Leak

I have some kind of leak in my trunk. I don't have anything in my trunk, it is completely empty. Has anybody ever drilled a hole in the bottom of their trunk to let water drain? Also, I have another leak that ends up getting my driverside floor wet, right by the lever to move the seat back and fourth. My floor is SOAKED. Any suggestions on how I could solve this problem.

It's probably from your sunroof drain tubes. Check them out and if the leak is coming from them, just tighten down the clamp or get better ones.

I found the one in my trunk. It was on the driverside behind the gas tank door. Above the rear bumper and below the quarter panel. I guess it was torn in some kind of preexisting incident from the original owner. I put some silicone to fill in the holes and it is holding up pretty good.

my car flooded from the floorboards up to an inch and a half. had rain for the past week. car was parked outside with a car cover.. there was water inside my spare tired compartment. drained it with the drain plugs. the whole inside of my car was wet. esp the rear seats and panels. the passenger side was more predominately flooded than the driver side. im hearing torn trunk seals and sunroof drain tubes.. i'll thoroughly check my seals but where is the drain tube located? i've looked for hours and hadn't gotten a clue. thanks.
