I swapped a top and frame from an 04 into my 00 Boxster. Based on that experience, it appears that the only way to access the foam liners is to remove the top and frame. Since you have already verified that the drains are clear, that sounds like your next step.

You may want to check some of the "part outs" in the classifieds to see if you can source a good set of foam liners. If the set in your car is seriously damaged, a replacement may be better than a repair.

Fortunately, it is not that difficult to remove the top and frame: https://sites.google.com/site/mikefocke2/removingthetopandframe
