the hole thru firewall is quite narrow, the drain diameter is quite wide. A thin - walled rubber tube was what I was using. i'd reckon a heated rubber tube would probably slip over. that would be too easy wouldn't it?

Nothing special just hose.

;D By the way I have the plastic piece you need for the back of the front seat. $10 Regards Ken Title: Re: WTB: Cowl drain tube, seat surround panel Post by: Ed on March 20, 2006, 10:42:57 PM very funny anecdote Ken,
will let you know about the plastic trim cover. I may go and check out Mike the Beater's stock as it is located between work and home. Cheers Ed Title: Re: WTB: Cowl drain tube, seat surround panel Post by: leon on March 21, 2006, 09:04:10 AM :)G Day Ed.
