Just installed new foglight, have minor question (+)

Just put in replacement foglight on our 2001 9-5 wagon (10 minutes). I noticed that the old foglights have a small (1/4" or so) drain hole in the bottom of the unit and there is a short white rubber drain tube that just slips over a nipple underneath the unit, I supposed for drainage? The tube is bent and looks to be designed to keep out water splashing from underneath while allowing drainage or atmospheric equilibration for the foglight unit.
The new light, however, has no hole. The nipple is at the bottom however and the old white rubber tube fits perfectly. I was considering drilling out a hole on the new unit, thinking the old unit was a punchout or something, but the old units appear to have been made that way. Does anyone know if Saab has re-thought this drain tube on the newer lights? I guess there is no harm in drilling the hole out, but was wondering and I will wait a day or so to hear from anyone here with knowledge. Thanks in advance.
