I had one. IT ended up being the hose that drained from the sun roof. I suggest goin on to team integra they have very good articles on this exact problem.

water leaks in my trunk when it rains, turned out to be the taillight gasket... one time it leaks so much i had to drill a hole in the chassis to drain the water.

Mines leaking from the rubber trim on top of the window on both sides of the car. I took it out when i painted my car and I guess I put it back in wrong or something. Haven't had a chance to take it apart to look at it sinces it's been raining every day lately. Also my trunk is leaking because i removed my spoiler and didn't cover up the holes.

mine was leaking from the taillight gaskets. i replaced them with homemade thicker ones(works like a champ). also i believe i got a leak from around the rear windshield squiter thats running across the headliner, down the sides and under the rear seat. i wont know until i get my car back from the performance shop. i'm going to paint it again in a few weeks so i'm more than likely going to shave the squiter in the process.

Water is coming into my hatch through the hole in the left taillight gasket where the clip goes in that holds the taillight wire harness. That means that water is getting into the taillight somehow, filling up, and then spilling in through that hole.

I have examined the taillight closely and cannot find any evidence of cracks or holes that aren't supposed to be there that could be letting water in. I think I'm going to try submerging the taillight in water to see where the water comes in.

I used to have a very small amount of water get in. It was from the taillights but I fixed that with new gaskets.

But now, 2 days ago, I found that I've got another leak. Not much coming into the spare tire area but still something. Still gotta figure out where the water is getting in

Oh I should mention, my taillight is filling up even AFTER I installed brand new OEM taillight gaskets (damn $25 each).

Water collecting under my rear seats was from my rear washer nozzle on the roof. It dripped down onto the headliner, ran down both sides and collected under the rear seat and got under the carpet, too.

That's either water coming in under the cowl at the base of the windshield, or it's your heater core.

pat try changing the tail light gasket. they wear out and are the leading cause of water condensation in taillights if there are no visible cracks. you have a 94-97 if i remember and my 94 gaskets wore out about three years ago, I replaced em and the problem is no longer present

My DA used to have a leak on the passenger side. It seems all DA's have this problem. I did mine in about an hour and it only costs a few bucks to fix. Here's a write up on the fix.

Actually im on the same boat as patrick we both have the same exact leaks so yeah my cars pretty bad as well...

my tail light gaskets leak a little but i dont think its enough to like fill up the tirewell with a pool, for some reason i see that alot of the water comes in and stays at the left and right rear corners of my car like where the antenna and the hose for the drain ont he right side is.. can seem to figure it out
