Have you checked the software top drains? They clog and overflow.

Yes, I have checked the soft top drainage, boot vent, tail light, the antenna. All no leakage. I really no idea where the water come from. And the pictures shows it more likely a surface

condensation. (| guess only) But it is weird that this problem only appears in driver side, no problem at all in passenger side (RHD) . Thank you very much for your reply and helping

if it is that high up it might seem to be the antenna , maybe the base needs to be tightened on the antenna ? I don't see anything else that can leak from that location ?

run a hand under the edges all around the top mating surfaces, maybe theres a pinhole. otherwise do it the old fashioned way and spray it while you look.
