With the inclement weather recently i've noticed that the rear passenger footwell of my Corrado is sodden.

Everywhere else is complete dry, just the rear footwell on the one side (I do park on a slope with teh front slightly higher than the rear)

I know the answer is "sunroof drain holes" but on the basis my sunroof doesnt work and its going to be an arse to get it open, and subsequently shut again: Is there anything else i can try first?

TIA thumbup

Is there not a small 'crank' like handle behind the interior light to open the sunroof manually?

no.
its electric, which works, however the usual problem of the plastic dowels on the arms have broken, meaning its a bugger to shut again...

There is a manual close mechanism on the Corrado's electric sunroof. Certainly on the post-facelift cars at any rate.

If you gently pull down the trim by the interior light and sunroof controls, you'll find an allen key and a hole into which it fits. Use this to manually crank the sunroof closed.
