Targa Leaking

New member
I've got a 2002 Targa and with this wonderful weather we've been having, I've started to get very small amounts of water ingress through the roof. It's hard to see exactly where it's coming in and it's only a minimal amount but I'd like to get it sorted. So 2 questions:

1. Is there a typical spot where these roofs are vulnerable (it only happens in downpours when the car is back on to the wind/storm)?

2. Is there a drain tube (like on sunroofs) that may be blocked causing the leak?
 
I can't help with 1, but the drainage plan for the Targa looks like this:

They usually get blocked at the bottom end of the drain tube. I think on the Targa they come out of the wheel arch, but you might have to take off the liner to see them. Sorry, I don't have any pics.
