Funny story on this, had my van looked over by Eric Zeno last spring, he looked at my windshield rubber and told me to get some silicon to run under the seal.  Well I had more pressing issues to address (like brakes) and besides I didn't have any leaks!

 

Fast forward to this fall, mystery water in the footwell, couldn't find the source but a tarp over the luggage compartment and windshield have put a stop to it.  Now I'll have to wait until spring when the temperatures are condusive to sealing the windshield like Eric recommended a year ago!
