Damn water leak

Well, it just rained here pretty hard and yet again I have water dripping from the passenger side grab handle and the overhead console. (yes, the truck has a moonroof) I changed the drain lines and I thought that would solve the problem but I guess I was wrong.

Anyone have any ideas here? Im at the end of my rope here.

You might try some sliicone grease on the weatherstripping. The type sold in a squeeze tube, not the aerosol. It will soften the weatherstrip and give you a better seal.
The only places I've found it lately has been at electrical supply shops.

A classic location for leaks is the passenger side windshield seal. A glass shop could help you locate it, although I think most are interested in new glass and will not reseal older glass. You can spray a soap solution on the outside and use compressed air on the inside and look for bubbles. I would start at the top corner on the p/s.
