I'm wondering what these holes are for- the ones w/the red arrows pointing at them specifically... There are holes like these all over the car, underneath carpet of course- there don't appear to be any bolts or anything under them, so I'm just curious. Also, the ones w/the blue arrows- these holes lead to an odd shaped bolt head of some sort & seem to be specific to the rear seat- that's what this pic is of- underneath the seat cushion...
Thanks

The blue ones, there's an alloy cross-brace that bolt in underneath.

Legoland- water drainage would make sense, except, all of them are underneath carpet... The water drainage points are in the wheel wells & center rear cubby- there are little rubber plugs w/slits in them & the whole plugs can easily be removed to expose the holes...
Steve- reference holes, eh...? Well, maybe that's it, but there certainly are a lot of them- two on each side of the rear seat that I can see here. Also, noticed similar holes in some 928 pics I have & they're all over the place- there are 4 right in a row in the passenger floorboard, etc... I can show many more pics, but it's not that big of deal... was just curious.
Vaughan- that's interesting- I had no idea....
The rear seat area is strange- there seems to be a metal panel over a metal panel- not sure why- seems as though one could be eliminated to save a lot of weight, but I'm sure some structural integrity would be lost, so I'll leave well enough alone...
