Started digging a little into my floors and I've got a hole on the passenger rear (see pic below...next to seat belt). I stabbed the hell out of it with a screwdriver and feels pretty solid. There was a couple small holes where the pan meets the long. Driver side has a dime size hole too. Where the seam sealer flakes off it is rusty, but feels solid. Where I have to pry the seam sealer off it looks like clean metal (look next to the tilt adjuster handle).

What are your guys thoughts on either patching it or just ordering a panel from RD? I also plan to install the popular inner long stiffening kit (or maybe the outer...stilling deciding).
Looking for some guidance. Thanks!
