Default Rear Window leak

It’s been raining here pretty bad for the past few days, and I get a little water on my cargo area cover of my 81 when it rains. So, I thought I’d take a look today and check. What I found was about 2 gallons of water. Luckily it appears all of it was caught by the cargo cover, but what’s the deal? It looks like it comings from my rear window and dripping down right at the bottom front corner of the rear window trim. Anybody had this problem; if so is it something I can fix myself? Thanks for the help!

I have this probem on my CE but it is because the rear glass opens up. The hinges get warped over time and don't seal correctly. Sorry I can't help you wiht your "fixed" window
