The front drains are in the front left and right corners of the sunroof and exit inside the front respective wheel wells . I was getting a wet front right floor and unplugged the tube with a brush designed for it on Amazon. cheap and easy fix.. word of caution I had to open the sunroof and stand on my seats as Im kinda short but my socks didnt hurt my seats a bit. easy fix for problem

Your cowl drains could be clogged up and causing a back up, check this thread for these stupid reducer pieces and throw them in the bin.

 






Have an assistant (or a sprinkler) hose the door down starting at the bottom and working up SLOWLY, while you sit inside & watch for the leak trail. It'll be easier to spot if you remove the trim panels & lift the carpet out of the footwell.
Went to a carwash earlier today, found a rubber plug on the floor is leaking slowly (1st photo, will ask the part number in another thread), and water leaking trace from the front row (2nd photo), only when the car starts moving. I don't have a clear under the seat so idk what that leads to, might update when I have a chance to remove the seats and take a look at it

That's not necessary - it's easier & better to keep it all in 1 thread.

But there is no PN for that body plug, and it's not available new. Just browse your local JYs if you can't simply pull that one out, clean it up, maybe add some sealant/adhesive, & put it back in.
I don't have a clear under the seat...
It's only 4 bolts & a couple of easy connectors to snatch the chair out. But to get at the rear bolts, the chair has to be FULLY forward, and the rear adjustment may have to be raised.

A quick update, I thought water comes from b pillar or floor, but actually front passenger side was completely socked. Eventually found out it was the clogged drain pocket (crawl drain restrictor?) completely filled with dirt, this YouTube video covered it
 






Yep, both of mine were completely filled with crap and I threw them away years ago. What a ridiculous design.
