      Hey I have the same problem with 1993 TA, whenever it rains it gets wet behind the seat to a point of a puddle. While getting an oil changed checked it out underneath, in that same location are weld points on the floor boards, they were rusted so I had the guy clean it off, and he used some kind of epoxy on that spot, but no luck. I looked closesly, the previous owner used little caulking in area of the door step, under the door seals, in the corner behind the driver side seat. But still remains a mistery. I have no ttops.

            you may need a new weather stip install. ive seen this before on even later models.

              There are adjustments for the glass if you take off the door panel. I recently did this for my Z and quieted down the noise level and fixed a very small gap. Also had the same problem on my Formula. Water would get in if it rained really hard and was windy. If it's too much to adjust out you might need new weather strip like Ken said, in that case check J.C. Whitney, they usually have that stuff.......Good luck

                My 94 Formula would leak water while I was driving. I fixed it by installing T-tops and new weather striping.
