There are two holes in the bottom of the frunk of my 1996 C4 cab. They go right through the floor diagonal to the emergency tire. I’m not the first owner but the car is OEM down to the last washer. The holes look like a factory feature but I can’t see any reason for them. Any R-listers who can help with this? Are they indeed a factory feature?
They are drain holes, originally they had rubber inserts pushed into them but the inserts stick out under the car and are easily knocked out by road debris. I just taped them shut on my car with a little metal duct tape. If you put the original part in them you will probably lose them again. A better solution would be a rubber plug but to be truthful I rarely look under the spare tire so, for me, the tape is good to go and has been for years.
