next time you have a bucket of suds ready to wash it....   have somebody sit in it with all the windows up and the doors closed..    have them start the motor and put the blower on high...  suds it up...   see if there are any bubbles being blown by air leaks...

could it also be the drains for the tee tops... if it has any...

Welcome to the wonderful world of Camaro t-tops! The 3rd and 4th Gen cars are notorious for leak problems.

First thing, do a thorough examination ofthe weather stripping on both the t-tops and the body, look for any signs of the seal not working properly, like pinches, cuts, chunks missing, etc.

Next, check out all the drain channels and holes to make sure you don't have any gunk clogging up a drain.
