I had leakes where the trim screws attached though the body. Specifically the metal clip on the front edge of the beltline.

Look at Sully's photo here..

As I understand he used backer rod (which is foam round rope used to fill the joints in concrete) between the wheel well liner and floor and then caulked over -- then sprayed the entire liner with truck bed liner.

Man. Does that look neat. I will let everything dry out and then chalk it. Hope that will help. I am tired of water on the floor

you can always try to find a big fan and pressurize the coach, then wash it with soapy water to try to chase the leaks.
