Water??!!

I've had a bit of an issue lately with condensation on the inside of the windscreen and I've just found the culprit. My drivers side footwell, or rather underneath the drivers seat is full of water!! Any thoughts at all as to where this is coming from? I've been underneath the van to see if there is anything obvious but all looks good. Short of lifting the carpets and heaving half the dash out, is there anywhere else I could or should be looking? Thoughts would be handy
Cheers

I have had the same issue in the rear passenger side footwell, I stand it it and it swells up, I thought it was a split drink but I've noticed it
Again

Just a quick note here to let you know I've found the culprit and it's something worth checking. Where the wiring harness for the speakers, windows etc goes through the door frame was a bit loose so it meant the water was running off the top of the scuttle panel, through the drain points/ flaps at the side and down the pillar. It was then finding its way through the loose fitting, filling up the inside of the pillar and pouring out into the footwell.
Basically, just as a quick check, if you're finding water in the car (the rear footwells are the lowest point in the car so that's where it will all collect and pool) check your door pillar seals/ connections and make sure they're all tight, even stick a bit of sealant on them to be sure.
Anyway, problem solved for me.
