Default Front drivers side water leak

I have a 2004 Mustang convert v6. It has a water leak in the front drivers side carpet. The leak seems to be centered above the carpet it seems to come from the dash and not the sides.I've searched and haven't found much on this problem. The water is from rain because I haven't driven it i n 3 weeks while my injured hand heals.What's does a motorcycle crash look like from the riders POV? Earth sky..earth sky..earth sky...earth air rescue. I park the car nose down in my driveway.Has anyone else had this problem and fixed it?

thanks

If I remember correctly there are drain routes that can get plugged up for the top, ill see if I can find the site and pics for that issue. There is a convertible section that might get you more help here as well.

Thanks for the prompt reply. I owned a 2001 Taurus with a drivers side water when it rained. I had a local shop isolate it in 5 mins. He applied soapy water to the edge of the glass and removed the A pillar trim. He then applied air pressure to the inside edge of the glass and bubbles appeared on the outside confirming a poor seal. He applied black caulking to it and solved problem at least until I sold the POS. I may try that with the mustang.
