Nothing in the haynes manual :dunno:. I'm guessing its coming from the weather stripping along the edges. You could lay in the trunk and have someone pour water over the window and see where it comes from.

It's probably the seals, unless there's a way that a trunk on our cars can get out of alignment, i know they can on some GM vehicles.

its probably the seal at the bottom of the back window. ive had to reseal it on all of mine. havent done it yet on the latest one but it needs it. once you get the spoiler off the trim strip at the btoom of the window just pops off. pry gently at it and then clean all the crap out of the groove and pack it with caulk or silicone. stick the trim back on before it dries completly since some of it usually ends up in the clip spots for the trim.

Simplest thing first, check the two holes on either saide that drain t the ground when it rains, snows, etc.
