Anyone else have this water problem?

I would check your drain tubes in the sun roof, there are a few threads already on this explaining how to clean it out and what to look for.

Next I would make sure that all of the bolts that hold the roof rack rail in place are all there.

Lastly if neither of the two above are the issue, then check around the rivnuts for any cracks that could be causing the leak

Usually if the sunroof is leaking it will be in the cab and you will find wet carpet.

I would check the drain holes for the door and check the door seals.

is that in the cabin or just between the door seal and plastic?

Door seal and plastic. The carpet is not wet.

Are your weather strips on the glass old and cracked ?

I agree with woodwardsh3. Check your glass strips. If I remember correctly, reading your other thread where you installed door speakers and they were very wet. Good luck.

No cracks, 2009 H3

I do have water dripping on all four door speakers.

I did a band aid fix on that by using liquid tape to cover up all the speaker connectors.

Do you think that water in the video is going down through the door panel and then getting caught on that seal? Then is pours out when I open the door?

It does it on the drivers side too. I checked one of the rear doors and it didn't have water pouring out upon opening.

My outer glass strips seem to have shrunk a little. I can press them into the groove a little bit, but they obviously don't stay there. I will take a close up picture of the seals tomorrow.

Some water may always get into the doors, that is why doors have drain holes. It is normal for water draining from the doors to follow the route that you showed. You just seem to have excess water entering your door. Thankfully, your cabin seal is good and keeping the water out from the carpet.

Take your door panel off. And run the hose or pour water around the window and the mirror and door handles, and you may see where most of the water is coming in. And your window seal should be fairly snug to the glass an check the ends of the seals. To see that they are sealed. Do you park on a angel the water could be running down the window seal groove and in to the door.
And 1 more thing to check where the wires go in to the door is the rubber boot still attached as it should be and not tore open.

Thanks, I will check the things you mentioned. I do park on an angle.

Is that a problem?

seems normal to me

Sweet. I guess I'll have to take the door panel and speaker off then use the water hose on the door and see what happens like WoodwardsH3 suggested.
