Partial success.

I washed the car yesterday and checked the trunk after the wash. No water on the right side; but, I had a couple of teaspoons of water in the left well. As best as I can determine the water is not entering from around the tail light or over the back sill. Looking for signs of water and checking with my fingers everything appeared to be dry at the back of the well; but it was definitely damp at the front of the well. I might have been overly zealous with the pressure washer when trying to clean seeds / twigs / dirt out of the channel around the trunk and forced water under the gasket at the front of the trunk. I will have to do some further testing by flooding water over the back window with a garden hose to see if it remains dry.
