Thanks Andy, that's something I hadn't considered, but a good idea! The LH side seems OK - a few specks of rust, but clean underneath when I scraped away the paint. I'm going to drill a hole to help avoid future problems, and we'll see what that looks like. Might be another day or so before I get a chance to try this out, but I'll post an update when I do.
Cheers,
Neil
