So finally got some time to add some pics.

First pic is just the new A/C drain tube.
Very odd construction - not too impressed, but the original did last 23 years.
Inside the spongy foam tubing is a spring that prevents it from collapsing.
There is a wiring harness that goes across the tube, so I guess the engineers wanted to be sure there was no condensation on the outside (thus the spongy foam).

As you will see in the pics, you remove the kick panel (and the panel that goes above your knees under the steering column) to see the drain tube.
Not too bad. For orientation, that is the gas (diesel?) pedal on the left of the picture.
There is a wiring harness that is strapped with a reusable zip tie over the drain tube.
I suggest unplugging the top connector and loosening the zip tie to make it easier to remove the tube.
There is a ivory colored ring clip at the top of the tube.
The tube had deteriorated so much that I just pulled the tube off the connector at the top, clip and all.
Then I undid the clip (hinged on one side, just a hook clasp on the other).
The clip is pretty darn tough to clip putting the new tube on.
The drain fitting on the A/C condenser has a little lip (like on a radiator).
The clip goes past the lip (like putting a hose clamp on a radiator) so the tube won't back off.
You thread the tube under the wiring harness and poke the rubbery end into the transmission tunnel. That's all there is too it.

I have had some wood blocks under the carpet to get the SD to dry out. So far so good!
