after giving the car a quick bath today. I opened the hatch and started to remove the cover for the spare tire and saw the telltale puddle up top just under the carpet

So I got out the hose and started to spray everything down. Its seeping through the vertical seam where the center panel joins upto the side/quarter panel.



Thats where I fixed it on the d-side last summer.

So for now its bandaged up with foil tape and rubber tape across the top of the light, to deflect any water from above.

Long term fix will be to remove the filler strip between the lights and bumper and take a grinding disc to strip all the old sealant out from that seam on the outside and inside. and reseal like the cowl seam.
