Don't know if this may help you, just posted it on a similar issue (my original post was back in July 2005).

 

Cleaned the scuttle drains, checked the sunroof drains, inspected the rear wash pipe and removed the vent fan to see if there was any water in the duct system. Everything checked out, but water was still getting in.

 

Final effort was to check around the external corner trims at the bottom of the windscreen. Removed wiper arm first, then carefully lifted off trim from 3 push in clips. The upper clip fixing had a sticky backed pad around the hole as well as being set in some silicone. This hole leads directly into the space along the back of the dashboard inside the car. The silicone had dried out and cracked and the whole area around the clip was full of dirt. Removed clip cleaned area and did away with sticky pad and old silicone. Reset clip back into hole with plenty of fresh silicone and re-assembled.

 

Did this on both sides. There has been no sign of any more leaks since.
