Is it leaking from the door seal or possibly the windshield. Take a hose to the car on a decent day and check in the car after a few minites, hell you could even clean the interior with the hose running over the car.

I agree, its a very good possibility that it is the door seal. On my S14 the rubber at right around both side view mirrors doesn't completely seal to the window. I noticed it when driving in the rain my left hand would get dripped on. I bought some closed cell foam self adhesive weather stripping and forced it in next to the seal. Tha pushed the seal back into contact with the window. "Eventually" I will replace the seal.
