Default Leak in 95 Hatch need help

I've had a leak in the back of the hatch for sometime now, it is comin from the left top corner of the hatch, it seemed to be comin through the weatherstrip.

So i went and ordered a new OEM weather strip from my Honda Dealer. 82 euro later and the leak is still comin through, not as bad but still comin through.

There is also a leak comin through where the rear seat belt is, this leak is also comin from up high too but there is a panel welded there so i cant take it off to see where.

Iam lost and dont know what to do next, I've searched in the past and other ppl have had this problem but no real resolution.

i need help

I had a problem like that with my trunk hatch. We tried everything, sprayed water on the closed hatch while i sat inside with a flashlight to try to locate source. Put silicone sealant everywhere. Nothing did a damn thing until i got the car painted. Good luck

take off the rear bumper and look on the drivers side of the car......there should be a black vent there....thats most likely your culprit.

Well i found where the water was comin through, you know the 2 strips that go from the front of the car to the rear along the roof.

Well right at the back near the hatch there were 2 cracks in the seal underneath the strips on either side, i cleaned em up and also got some black primer and sealant and fixed it up. Done the trick. So just to let ppl know if they have leak comin in the hatch and it seems to be comin from up high I would check there.
