Please Help: Air Conditioner Leaking

If you look at the picture below, without the filter in place, anything that enters the outside intake has a direct path into the air box. With the filter there, you will prevent particulate from getting into the box, where it then plugs the drain and provides a breeding ground for molds. Even if you haven't had the drain fully plugged, the stuff that enters without the filter will stick to the walls of the box. So, if you've run without the filter for any period of time, before adding the filter it would make sense to disinfect the airbox as well as you can with something like Ozium or Lysol.

It can be hard to find from under. You can easily access it from about. Just have a pan or bucket under the hose as you clear it, so you don't get the output all over the carpet.

Here's where it is (top left side of the passenger footwell):

Here's what it looks like when you pull it out of the flloor:

For RHD cars it is the same but on the opposite side of the center console.

So you mean it would be on the right side of the car and run to the top right of the carpet orrrrr?
