Do a search on udders and you'll find posts with pics and location info. Basically these udders are at the end of the drains, and when they plug up, water backs up into places you do not want it.

I had this problem and couldn't find any leaks. Turns out, the threshold protectors were allowing water to leach up and over and into the driver's floor. I trashed the protectors and have been bone dry since.
