Door Drain Holes

[Harold]

Hi,

Where should the drain holes be located in the doors?

Does someone have a picture?

Thanks,
Harold

the drain holes are in the base of the door, there is a black plastic and ruber strip that oscures them. The strip runs the length of the ase of the door.

Thanks for that, my passenger door fills up and overflows into the car

The drains are easily cleared using an old table knife.....

I have a couple in my tool box that I have modified for various uses. Clearing the drains periodically is easy preventitive maintenance.
Ciao,

hey Harold........

Mate, move down to Melbourne - it never rains here!!

But the Canberra climate is so much better for Italian cars.

How many drain holes should there be? I found two, one near the back of the door and one about halfway along.

Am I correct in thinking there should be one near the front?

 

[Harold]

Help?

Anyone?

I don't want to drill a new hole unless I really need to.

Should there be a hole near the front of the door? and thus three in total?

I went to ckeck my stored 81 as I have removed the rubber seals to prevent rust.

Measuring from the front edge of the door, there should be 1/2 inch oval holes at 9inch / 19inch / and 30.5 inch .
These are oval and right near the lowest crease in the door. Good that I checked as there's a bit of rust on the very edge that needs attention.

Thanks.

I will have to check again but I think mine only has the holes at 19 and 30.5 inches.
