Holes for Drain Channel Pipe

Could someone help with the location for the rubber pipes that come from the hood drain channel, please?

I have the pipes, but have no idea where I should drill the holes for them to go through.

Should they have a grommet where they go through the metal?

I 'am looking for the same location as well. If you find it somewhere else please post it here and I will do the same. I know the holes should have the rubber grommets but I 'am not exactly sure of the location. Thanks.

Here are some photos of my BJ8. The two hoses I don't have photos for are the center and passenger side of the seat surround. You should be able to figure their positions from the driver's side shot. It looks like there was only grommets for the wheel wells?

Greg, thats great thanks. I fitted a new rear panel and believe that has the holes in place already, it was the wheel arch ones that were throwing me. Rob
