Good afternoon
My 1996 CS leaks around the sunroof during heavy rains. I have noticed that
the water that gets in around the sunroof is not draining away.
Does anyone know where these drains lead and can they get plugged ?
thank-you in advance

If they're like the c900, then yup. There's drain tubes from the front
corners, down through the a-pillars, and drain into/below the engine
compartment somewhere in the area of the wheel arches. Those hoses can
come off the fittings. More likely to be plugged, but don't clear them
too aggressively or they'll come off. Any elasticity they had new is
pretty much gone. So don't just pump compressed air down them or you're
done for sure.

The front drain openings are on either side inside of the aquarium.
Open the plastic panel between the windshield and the hood and you can
find it. The drain hose has a rubber tip. It must have clogged. I'd
remove and throw away the rubber tip. use this opprtunity to clean the
aquarium, either by compressed air or if you don't have one user your
garden hose.
The rear drains are next to the rear wheel arch I forgot front or back.
But you can spot it crawling under the car.
