I did this on my plus 4 last week. I found I had to drill at an angle in an upward direction. I tested with the side screens off, and to get a decent flow of water I had to clear the exit on the driver side. There is a velvet like material under the sliding part of the window so just used a suitable sized tool to clear around the hole. A simple fix. Not yet tried in rainy conditions.

I do not quite understand why at the front and to the inside, I drill just behind front window on outside and at rear on outside to let water drain from exposed channel. I thought the fixed front Perspex panel was sealed?

For me, I noticed the water in the front part of the channel when I had washed the car. I have a slightly sloping drive so any water collected towards the front of the channel.

Adrian if the rainfall overwhelms the rear track/channel holes on the outside it track switches onto the inside I have three holes in mine, two in the rear out track and one in the inside at the lowest point at the front.
They seem to do the job.

Mmm, I wondered if there was some reason like this, my front screens are sealed at the track point, and can't see how it could get to the front. I'll do a watering can test.
