Water in the trunk 120-130

While I was at the welders shoring up my ripped shock mount (more about that on another post), I found water pooled underneath the carpet in my trunk of my 122 sedan. We have had lots of strong rains lately. I thought the water might be coming up with the shock but it was dry there.

I checked the seal and the rubber is not ripped and is soft but it is only attached by some sort of adhesive along the bottom. Perhaps when I shut the trunk, it pulls the seal off its guide and lets water in.

Should the rubber seal be adhered all the way around?

If so, what adhesive is best?

Anywhere else the water could be seeping in your experience?

Thanks
