I've had those rascals out and back in (hatch replacement) Be careful though they have an easily broken :-) retention tab, then they need to be glued back in/on
with seam sealant.. Don't ask.
Odd that leaks would occur there .. although anything is possible. These are above the gutter and subsequently the water level . Make sure that gutter is spotlessly clean. Usually (in my experiences) I pull off the rubber hatch seal.. Annually.. Clean, lube (sillycone or Peanut oil), squeeze the grippy part back together (finger pressure is adequate) then reinstall the thing.
That, in My belief has prevented/stopped Any hatch/water leaks in every Saab I've ever owned.
