Would love to hear how you solved this!

Thanks so much in advance if you don't mind taking the time to share!

Hi Scott
Yes I did
The water was coming in through a blanking panel bonded to the bulkhead on the passenger side. I had to remove all of the dash and centre console. I then had to remove the heater box assembly complete to get to the panel. I then re bonded the panel with Wurth bond and seal and for an extra measure, I then applied dynamat to the whole area before putting the carpet back. It never leaked again
