Leaking from a WEIRD spot

I've already replaced the t-top weather stripping and the leaks for the most part have gone away, but when the car sits for a few hours in heavy rain it leaks like a mother from the collected water.

For a while it's always leaked around the 3rd brake light and from underneath that plastic panel that runs on the roof behind the t-tops over the rear passengers' heads. I imagine that's from the worn out rear hatch seal, atleast I hope it is because I don't see any other way it could get in.

But today was a weird one. . . it was dripping off of one of the screws that holds in that triangle piece that holds on the sun visor. Now I've had it come in through some of the screw holes on the t-tops before, but this one has thrown me off.

Well. Maybe you have a leak around the windshield and it's seeping in and dripping off the screws. Or you have a leak around the front of the T-Top Area and it's seeping to the screws..

Or.. it's condensation.. Phew.. alot of ors there.
