Create/make a "plug". Since it's thin sheetmetal, it might be tricky but can be done. And then lightly weld it.

Ill see what my boys in the machine shop can do. plus my buddy just gave me his old stick welder. shouldnt be too hard to make a plug, weld it, then grind down.

good ****, thanks man!!!

Def wanna do it soon to prevent water/moisture getting inside your vehicle. Water can do some damage.

But you have to do it ALL yourself! No using anyone else's technologies! That's right, find some iron ore and make your own sheet metal patch, then weld it with a charcoal fire aerated with a bellows made from a pig's bladder you killed to feed your family and weld the patch in heating and hammering it together with a rock!

Otherwise you are just paying someone else to do work YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO yourSELF! ;-)

Because I can! Primarily. I was just pokin' at TahoeBoomin for his "gottas do everything yourself" Libertarian attitude, like he builds his own auto audio equipment! ROFL!!!

But why screw up someone else's thread for your own playground tantrum? This guy made a post asking a question and you have to add your own BS!

OP I'd use JB Weld (like suggested before hand) if the holes are small enough. Than you wouldn't have to worry about the heat of a welder and what's on the other side of the floor panel or any carpet getting burnt/melted.
