one thing that really pisses me off is that my window sticker got fucked up, i wanted to keep that **** in decent shape, since its my first new car and all..

I hope they don't try to blame it on you, like say you left a window down or whatever.

i would be worried about it had they not just worked on the suroof and did a horrible ****** job on it, also i vacuumed the water out and its almost filled back up again... the leak is coming from my passenger side A pillar.

since you said they did sunroof work it looks like a drain got unhooked. just go in and let them have it, just don't be an *******.

What did you originally take it in for that would maybe contribute to this problem? What did they work on before you got it back?
You will definitely need carpet AND insulation under it. Most of the time they come together. If they try to dry it and reuse. It WILL mold underneath and a smell you will have for the cars life! Guaranteed!
