Sunroof drain holes 89 760 700 1989

Hello, was wondering if anyone knows where the drain holes for the sunroof are? I am replacing a bad sunroof motor and thought it might be a good idea to clean them out while I'm at it. Also is there anything I should do to keep the sunroof in good working order?
Thanks!

Four corners of the tray that holds the sunroof, but this is recessed behind the ceiling panel so its inaccessible unless you pull the inside of the car apart.

The Hoses take the water from teh tray to the ground through the columns... two run down the front frame pylons by the windshield, the two rear ones are (I think) on the frame in the very rear of the car (by the back windshield in either car, though in the wagon it would be the rear door jams).

Don't wash the car in really cold weather unless you can let it dry in a warm place... the hoses from the sunroof can freeze up and cause flooding if you get water in there. Don't force the gearing, keep it lubed if possible, make sure it sits well, make sure the seal is in good shape.
