I'm trying to attach some pics to show you. It is sad that it took a huge tree branch falling on the hood of my car for me to notice this.. ;(
Those two plugs you removed from the bottom of the door are not drain plugs. They are access holes for the window adjustment. The drains are at the front and rear of the door. Some water goes through the door from the rear sail area and drains out of these little holes. Check them to see they are not plugged.
Sorry to hear about your mishap, I hope it can be fixed.
