Default 95 Integra - leaking in front passenger floorboard

I have had my Acura mechanic check all hoses - couldn't find anything - suggested taking it to windshield place - they checked it out - not the problem - they suggested taking it to a body shop. But first my dad and I replaced the weather stripping around the black plastic piece that runs along the bottom of the windshield - thought we had it fixed. It's raining cats and dogs in North Carolina and my Integra is still leaking. Does anyone have any other suggestions before I spend the big $$ on a body shop trouble shooting this problem??? Thanks!

Does this only happen when it rains? If not, maybe you have a hole in your heater core. (assuming G3 Integra's heater core is around the same place as my G2 Prelude)

how are your intake manifold welds? but seriously, id check to make sure all the grommets are in the firewall.

What is leaking water or coolant? If water is it leaking when it rains?

If it is coolant - it is the heater core.

If water - it can be blocked drain in the moonroof. There are four drains at four corners. If block is not obvious - try gentle blowing air through the block. If air is flowing then the drain tube may have come off - you may have to take off the A-pillar plastic garnish off from inside and reattach the tube.

I know this is a problem in some G2s, in fact mine 92 LS's been leaking for a few weeks now. G2ic.com has a fix for it; it turns out to be a faulty rubber seal under the windshield wiper cowl. Check under Teg Tips; it might apply to a G3 as well.

Thanks for the info. I"ll go and check that out. I'm sure it isn't coolant. I took the glove compartment out and saw where it was leaking in. I"ve blown out all hoses and replaced the rubber sea around the windshield cowl. When I had the cowl off I could feel down in there how wet it was so it is still either leaking around the rubber somewhere or somewhere else. I'm going to try again this weekend. In the mean time my car is starting to smell!!

This website is great!! G2ic.com - I found exactly the problem - There is another black plastic cowl on the passenger side that is under the windshield cow - which I am missing - hence the leak. I really appreciate everyone's help.
