Wet zed

So seemingly out of the blue both sides of my zed seem to be letting water in from the roof which is dripping directly onto both from seats. I discovered this over the weekend after deciding to go for a nice drive out with the Mrs, everything was going swimmingly up until I departed the car to get a Subyway lunch and noticed my arse was sodding wet. It's not a fun experience lining up for a couple of footlongs with noticeable wet stains on the back of your keks. After returning home and inspecting my girlfriends bum I can confirm it's both sides leaking. 

 

Anyway - this is what it looks like from the inside (the car that is)

I would appreciate any advice on whats failing on the car to cause this and how to fix it or at least slow it down.

 

thanks.

    Can you see any drips from the targas or at the side windows.? You will probably need new rubbers.

    Only dripping coming in to the car seems to be from the pillar in the picture. Both sides.

    What's the damage for a set of rubbers?

    Work computer wont let me see the picture but new rubbers are expensive and probably come from USA.

    I'm having leaks in the same area on one side. Targa seals are quite new, so I don't think that's the issue. Unblocking drains and removing shims hasn't helped. Next attempt is replacing the seal that wraps around the tops and windscreen.
