nikki.... Very easy to do, should only take you 15 minutes with an air wand

There are 4 sets of drain holes - 2 @ each side of the rear and 2 @ the front (frunk).

Rear - put top into service position and look along each side where the top mechanism sits, you will see a soft foam lining with a drain hole which fills with leaves. You can tell if they are clear when you pour water down the hole, it will drain out just in front of the rear wheels.

Front - open bonnet (hood to you) and remove battery cover & both plastic covers each side of the battery. Again you should see 2 drains behind / side of battery case which should be clear of debris.
