ANSWER: Ramay,

There is a carbon brush that connects to the back of the steering wheel via a spring loaded assembly.  The horn baseplate connector ring.  Second, on the sun roof motor you will need to remove the trim plate at the front to gain access.  Depending on your model the headliner might need to come out.  But, most are accessable through the front panel.

What the part # for that stripping and for clockspring

Answer
Ramay,

The headliner has to come out to get to the assembly.  Simply remove the visors and the trim and drop the headliner out of the way.  The leak could be one of the four hoses that drain water to the four corners of the car.  With the headliner removed you will see the hoses.  Two in front and two in back.  Probably have a blockage as this is most common.  Second, a hose might have come off and that can cause a leak too.  Lastly, if the sunroof does not close all the way it will let too much water in for the hoses to drain and that causes water to backup.
