There should be some plugs under the carpet.

Yes, there are drain holes, but they are under the carpet. Lots of them too....I was under mine the other day and there were at least 5 in the trunk area.

Depending upon condition, iron oxide will generally provide a few randomly placed additional outlets.

yes there is one specifically like in the middle of the driverside. But that isnt the lowest point for the front that is so i drilled one 1/4 hole in the front left then primed and painted bc i had some small leak that i could not trace and that was my best plan at the time.

You will need to get under the rug or remove it to get to the plugs. But if you plan to have that much water in there that you need to drain, you should probably take the rug out anyway.
