Now hold on, I never got an answer as to whether or not they actually
trashed the Ferrari or not.  Anyone know?

Better yet, did the odometer go backwards or was it another Ferris Bueller
ill-fated attempt?  I hate that scene when the Ferrari goes into the
woods...

How much TIME do you spend driving in reverse?  Do you get better gas
mileage while going backwards (I'm sure some kind of theory on relativity
comes into play, right?)

FWIW, I have a DX (no sunroof) and I have that same leak.  I don't know
where it comes from either but it drips in whenever it rains or even if I
wash the car.  It also seems to drip more when I drive in reverse.

I have just gone through the process of dismantling the interior of my 89
CRX Si. I also removed the entire sunroof assembly, cleaned and greased it,
replaced seals and guides and then reinstalled the unit. Now I must remove
the panel once again (not the tray) and shim the rear corners flush with the
roof.
The car was getting leaks during prolonged rain. The headliner did not seem
to get wet. Instead, the water would drip from the hatch strut "posts" that
attach just below the hatch-to-body seal. Also, I could remove the hatch
carpeting and the water would be flowing in a small stream from the rear of
the strut towers (behind the panel) down into the spare tire well.
Incidentally, the spare tire well is the only place that I found rust on the
car.
The drain tubes for the roof were not blocked and are still nice and
pliable. The sunroof panel and tray are not rusted out. They are perfect. I
don't really think the leak came from the sunroof. Anyone got ideas? Perhaps
the rear quarter windows? I can't seem to find any obvious "route" that the
water continuously travelled. I just want to cover all bases before I put
the interior back in.
BTW, I took LOTS of digital pics and will write up a web how-to when I can.

Thanks,
Craig Borden
