Seat belt wet

Been raining for a week here in New England, anyone has a problem when pulling the seat belt from it pocket pillar, the belt is wet?

Looking at the roof, I can't seem to find a possibility of water leaking
from the roof to the seat belt pocket pillar. The top look sealed.

Yeah.....visually looking at the sun roof, looks new and tight but I can be mistaken. Water is the boss of all leaks. Could be sipping to the edge/lip of the sun roof?

There is 4 drains for the sunroof(one on each corner). The front ones can sometimes become loose and start to leak. To check you need to pull the A-piller far enough to at least take a look. If you search here there are threads that have pictures
