Ok, so gave the car a good wash this morning but thought I'd sort out the drainage holes for the sunroof as I keep getting a wet seat belt when it rains. Poured some water in the sunroof chassis at the front and I can see the 2 drainage holes at the front and two puddles formed under each front wheel arch.

But where the hell are the other 2 holes! I'm thinking these holes are gonna be the problem as that would run toward the seatbelt. Has anyone got a photo so I can have another look tomorrow?

Cheers in advance

It is possible (I have had a similiar problem) that your sunroof seal is so worn that too much water is getting into the sunroof chassis, more than what the A-pillar drainage holes can cope with. The excess water ends up coming straight into the interior.

Where the water ends up, eg seatbelt, is mainly due to the angle the car is on.

If I remember correctly, there are two A-pillar drainage holes, and two C-pillar drainage holes.
 
Damn it, so we're possibly looking at a new sunroof seal then?

I just couldn't see the a pillar ones to test if they were blocked,there must be a pic somewhere of the sunroof with some photoshop Andy Gray circles drawn where the holes are.
