    Hello All,

    I have a 2010 Gen 3 Prius with sunroof/solar panel. I am getting leaks through both driver/passenger sun visors whenever it rains really bad, or when I go through the car wash.

    I have figured it to be the sunroof drains are probably clogged but I cannot locate them for the life of me.

    Does anyone have a diagram or even better, a picture of these drain holes? I've tried looking all over and don't really see anything.

    Thanks!

    Did you figure out what was up with that. I have a deteriorated ''hinge'' cover on the front of my sunroof. Want to get it replaced. Worried it might be a huge job for something so minor.

    It is, if I'm not mistaken.

    @Cortega315 I see you've already posted in the old 8 page thread about the issue. And what I believe @fuzzy1 has described in that thread are 2 (small channels) that lead from the sunroof to the windshield drain channels, that he scrapped clean using a pointy tool. He also mentioned that he's not sure those tiny grooves he cleaned are actually water drain channels. @Markee posted that he recently ( 2022 ) had 2 different glass installers search for drain holes and neither of them found any drainage tubing even after pulling many of the interior trims and headliner off.
