Passenger side yes, no problems

Drivers side, depends on the tester. If he accepts that the inner wings are not a structural part of the vehicle (as they are not part of the chassis then I would argue it!) then he may let it go, but as above, if you imagine a beach ball near any safety critical components like the brake servo and there is holes then a possible fail.

thanks for advice
 
30cm from mount or seat belt fastener or none if seats fitted,technically servo etc are secured to bulkhead
 
bulkhead is fine and drivers side inner wing just a few small holes in passenger side inner wing. also can boot floor holes be patched or does the floor need replacing?
