Mine has rust at the driver front corner where the sunroof meets the body.
I just cemented it and called it a day, no more leak.

I might be able to help you here.
I had the same thing on my 220 320 Cdi and water was also coming through the front roof light.
The mild steel down pipes between the front drain holes in the Sun roof had corroded away. I had new steel tubes welded in on both sides at the front ( This involved taking out some interior trim).
What happens is the water can flow back towards the rear drains which can't cope and water gets through the rear vanity light.
This repair cost me £320 but it is now completely dry.
Before getting it checked make sure the front drains aren't blocked by pouring water down the drain holes, it should come out in the front wheelarch.
