Where is my leak?

Hey folks I have an '03 R50 that is collecting water in the bottom of the boot. I also have headliner stains...any ideas?

Have a Sunroof? if so check your sunroof drains.. possibly plugged/disconnected.
When mine had a bit of moisture in the boot/battery area I found the leak was the 3rd brake light.....but that lead dripped inside the rear body around the hatch...no roof stains.
