Funny story.Many vehicles you dont need to drill acess holes.
Many years ago I had just bought a Mazda Protege, (one of the best cars I ever owned) and I wanted to get it sprayed. So to get a good job done especially inside the rocker panels I took off the plastic kickplate on the 4 sills. Underneath each there was a slot over an inch wide and other than a couple of strips joining each side together it was the full length of the rocker. I figure great, he won't have to drill any holes and they'll be able to do a good job.
I'll be d***ed if they didn't drill a hole at each end of the slots, don't know if the guy was blind, stupid or both but I got it back and here were 8 plugs, 2 for each rocker panel at the end of each slot. Never could figure out where his mind was...if there even was a mind involved
