I had the same problem in my old civic. There is a trough where the water gets channelled off of the windshield along the trunk and down your rear bumper. I had a teeeeny pinhole there, and water would find its way into the trunk. Check that area. I just used some silicone and it stopped. Just an idea. Good luck

passenger side window on the1/4 panel(leakin). i'm glad i caught it. i completely gutted the trunk so it looks sleek. nothng rusty looks sleek and trust me, if you even get condensation in your trunk its going to rust.

Yes sometimes even a slight misfit of the parts around the water channeling areas of the trunk and rear window can lead to water in the trunk. I fixed my problem by making sure the water was wiped off before I opened the trunk.
