Default [HELP]Water entering sunroof JDM EG6 stock sunroof

Currently my ride is JDM EG6 with stock sunroof.
This sunroof does not need rubbers to block/stop water from entering it.
It however allows the water to flow down to the front and back of the car.
But now the right side of the sunroof is collecting water. The left side is still doing fine. I just pour water and it flows right down.
So what can I do?
PS:I just replaced the rubbers around my front windshield.Could this be the cause of the problem?

Have you checked that the drains are clear? There is usually one in the front and one in the rear.

The EG6 has nothing special about the moonroof. It's the same as all other '92-'95 Civic moonroofs. It's just like shown above.

TWO moonroof drains.

LOOK in the picture I posted to see where they are.

I've heard of using compressed air to clean them out. You're going to have to force it out somehow.

But if I am not mistaken I have two drain pipes at the front.
Hmmmm.
Compressed air?
Is there any way I could find the pipes?
And if I were to remove the windshield could I see those pipes?

According to Honda, you only have one drain in the front and one in the back.

Removing the windshield will not help you find the drain.

Compressed air is supposed to force anything that's stuck in the tube out.

That's strange since Honda only shows one for the front and one for the rear.

The image above is for a 1995 Si hatch.

It's just weird that the EPC would only show some of the parts.
