Water in cab..

I have water leaking in under the plastic molding that is around the windshield...Common? So i think ill have to pull the molding off and seal around the marking lights..and maybe reseal the windshield. Any ideas?

If the leak is top dead center generally that is the windshield. But if you have lights it could be those as well. My bet is the windshield. Its lap sealed at top dead center. They start leaking after a few years.
