Does anyone know how to get at and replace the drain plugs on the front driver side footwell?
I have a lot of water coming in. Do I need to remove the whole skid plate and go at it from below or do I remove the carpet and do I from the inside?

The AC drain is in the passenger footwell.

I've a lot of water ingress on driver side and I've sat inside while it was hosed with water.
Looks like it's coming from the floor up. Is that possible?

Maybe some muppet bodged a power wire through the bung close to the drain on the drivers side? And did not seal it.
This also shows how to get access to the drain may be worth taking a look.
