In this pic I pulled the headliner down far enough to see up inside, the bright blue tube is the drain tube. View is looking forward from the back edge of the headliner

This is where the blue tube goes down thru the C pillar....you can just see the blue tube in the first pic, then another view looking down along the edge of the C pillar where it goes down thru the body shell

This was somewhat interesting, this flat orange cable is the high voltage (48 volt) cable that goes to the starter for the stop/start feature.

I hesitate to call it a feature because I don't like it and try to remember to shut it off whenever I start the car. It doesn't use it much if the weather is really hot and the A/C is trying to catch up but on a cool day like today it pretty much works at every stop light.....it can be a PITA.

Look at all the electrical bits under the back seat! I have no idea what any of these are for......

Oh, and the reason for the delay? They claim they broke a seat back release cable and had to order it, and it won't be in till next Wed.

Why does that impact the sunroof drain repair? No idea......
