Boot is from holes in the tailgate, need to remove plastic pannel onthe underside of the tailgate.
Wet floor and seatbelts is either from a leaky sunroof or down the side of the black trim on the B pillar, just behind the drivers door.

This if where mine was leaking.
Wet seatbelts is a bitch coz it causes them not to retract.
Also check the taillight to body seals.

have replaced the taillight seals ... seems that the boot leak is coming from the lower right + left corners of the window on the hatch

Call up Novus, get them to come out and remove window.
Spend a day or 2 fixing rust.
Call up Novus again, get them to come out and refit window.

What we did is remove the window and go ape shit on all the rust just cut it right out and replace it with new metal .
It's a huge design flaw .
the seatbelt problem is the rubber seal around the window.
What i did is just get some see thru hose (slightly smaller than hose pipe) and stick it inbetween the body and the seal to push to seal closer to the window.
I've never had any other problems with leakage.
