The water then collects inside the inner fender well until it reaches the top of the sill plate. Then it fills the floor of the car usually behind the seatson the floor pan. You can clean the drains with a welding rod or coat hangar or compressed air from under the car and flush water thru the side vents until it runs out clean.
Happy Hunting...cpa
I have a similar problem. Where are these holes? I suspect they have been covered by the undercoating my PO put one many moons ago.
