As the title suggests, what have you blokes substituted for the front air vent plenum drain tube in FE FC, with our other cars I was able to re use or locate original replacements

Is there some sort of hose that can be adapted to fit?

As I lay rubber down the street I pray for traction I can keep, but if I spin and begin to slide please dear god protect my ride

I found some pollution control hose that was thin in section and had just the right bend in it. Working at Hoppers Stoppers I was fortunate to be able to rat through the shelves in Repco and Bursons looking for hoses etc from their stock ;D
I do miss that benefit :P

This worked out well enough Mark, thanks for the tip, and if you cut it in the middle of the dog leg you get 2 drain tubes!
