Trunk Latch Water Leak

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
I just bought a 2013 Model S P85 and yesterday it rained. Today I go to grab something out of the trunk and a large amount of water comes pouring out of the latch and adjustable trunk rubber. I noticed there was also water in the inner tail light. I found this YouTube video which explains exactly what the issue is but no one has been able to post a fix for the issue. Anyone have a step by step video or pictures on how to fix it? Thank you in advance!

 
Mine is definitely coming from higher up. My taillights are dry inside thank goodness.

Removed the plastic piece at the top of the liftgate and it is wet underneath and it is flowing through to the left hand hole or whatever the term is for where you can reach into to close the trunk by hand.
