Thanks GizmoEV
My car has had reported wet seat belt issues. I know one of the rear windows leaks. Not investigated it yet. Think the seal has dried up.

cheers

The trim around the side windows just pops off if you take it carefully. I thought my back windows leaked too, until I got the trim off and saw how they are attached. After I took the trim off from around the door and removed the last clip I poured a little tiny bit of water in the hole and it came out above the window. It was the plastic molding/trim around the window which diverted the water around the window to make it look like it was the window that leaked.

It is real strange that Honda didn't at least anticipate this and form the body work to divert the water outside the vehicle.
