Pulled the passenger seat and carpet/padding. Obvious small holes in the far corner, in a few depressions, and along the side. Other than these holes, metal seems same thickness in front and in back (under seat). Area in front of seat sliders has surface rust; area under seat no surface rust.
Pictures are (1) carpet out, (2) corner holes, (3) side holes, (4) after wirebrush. Wirebrush revealed a few small holes in some of the depressions.
After using wire brush on my drill, much surface rust is gone. Appears to have some kind of black coating over the original red paint - anti-rust?
I'd appreciate any comments or thoughts on my next step(s). I hand and eye checked the inner sill, and it's solid. I wonder if I should just "patch" those small holes, and put some kind of rust-encapsulator over the entire surface?
Thanks all.
