    Just run a hose over the car around the area that the leak's coming from (drivers side) and you'll be able to see the water dripping in.

    Places to check:

    Windscreen
    Mirrors
    Door Membrane (the plastic sheet people usually rip out when installing fully sick speaker systems)

    Think I found it! A crack in the rubber that sits at the bottom of the windscreen! Blutak has seemed to have fixed it for now!
