Default # of drain plugs?

I have an 09 jku, and had an inch of standing water in all of my foot Wells the other day. (thanks best top bikini). I found 10 drain plugs to pull out in the passenger area. Did I miss any? I didn't pull the whole carpet out, just pulled it up and blindly searched with my hand.
Oh yeah, are there any in the 'trunk' area?
Thanks

You found all of them in the front area. There are two more in the back- one in the jack cubbie and one in the what ever you wanna call it "trunk" tub thing.

Thanks on the front 10. I just found the other 2 in the back still full of water from Sunday nights storm. Man those plugs work well!

You got them all. I remember the first time my (then) 16 year old son left the top off and it poured down rain. Next morning I had him go out with the shop vac and suck all 300 gallons (ok an exaggeration) of water out of the Jeep. About a week later, it was ME who left the top down. He came out to laugh at me and I said "watch this" - and pulled out all of the drain plugs and watched all that water just pour out the bottom.... and then let the sun and breeze dry it all out. The look on his face was priceless.

Of course, they've been in a ziploc bag in the back of the JK for the past 3 years and 8 months.
