tank drilling question

hey there! I have a 210g all glass aquarium that currently has dual rear overflows. I'm toying with the idea of turning it into a peninsula. I know the overflows can be removed,and I will cover up the holes that are currently in the bottom. Can I drill through the side panels or can I only drill the bottom? Thanks

Who is the manufacturer?? I would call to find out 100% but sides are usually not tempered.But def. call, you wouldnt want to shatter that tank.

Your tank (very) likely has a tempered bottom, but not the other panels.
