Default Interior problems...

So, I'm new to mustangs and cars in general. I have a 88 Mustang GT hatchback and my interior hard trim and dash are all messed up. I need to replace all of the trim, the back trim, the trim in the back seats, and the dash. Does anyone know where I can find these? I also have a water leak problems. When it rains, there are a couple of wet spots. 1.) The holders in the back seats, like where you can put your cellphone or anything, when it rains water builds up there. 2.) The hatch window has water come through. 3.) Water drips on my left shoe. It drips from the fusebox area.
4.) And last, water builds up under my driver side carpet. The carpet is soaked, and I can't figure out where it comes from. So basically, I'm just asking what could cause there leaks and how I can fix.

try ebay or a junk yard for trim pieces. the only way to stop the leaks effectivly is to replace weather stripping, silicone your windshield and it should stop the leaks.

the leak on your driver side carpet could possibly be your heater core .. hows your heat ? check the carpet for antifreeze ...

my heater core has been out for awhile, I bypassed it though, so what else could cause the wet carpet and it to drip from inside my dash? windshield seal out? read something about cowl
