water on pass. floor board
I thought the same thing. The windshield was replaced twice before I figured it out. My gasket had kind of fallen inward between the bolts on the blower. Unbolt the blower from the firewall, straighten out the gasket and put some RTV on the gasket and bolt the blower back up. It's cheap and easy so give it a try before redoing the windshield.
For me it was a windshield issue. I think I had to bring it back 6 times before they replaced the windshield and seal - now it does not leak. Now I just have a lot of windnoise bc it is not an oem windshield seal ... need to tackel that with them.

yea i looked and there is some,which means i hav to take out the windshield to get that fixed, sand, prime,paint and wait 2 weeks for paint to set before new windshield goes in. the glass guys will love me, its 250 bucks for them to take it out and put the new one in and this will be the second time they just had to put a new one in, my first was my car, the windshield was half smashed and the roof was damaged right on top. so i took it out and kinda fixed the badly dented in lip. then primed and painted. they had to stick extra chaulking in to make sure it didnt leak. and its a pain taking them out.

well they did my car in the driveway and i figured i'll have the jeep done that way too, but they probably wont fix any of that. since i can see rust under the trim. maybe i should check some shops for prices and what they do.

I hope you post the result...
I've been down this path - headaches with a windshield replacement. Not fun. I'd like to replace the one in my XJ but am avoiding the hassle and argument that might arise. I don't know why but the people at the glass company are off-putting to me.
