It is hard to describe... A small hole/port above the passenger side leaf spring slightly to the rear of the spring mount about half way up the engine bay at the bottom of the evaporator housing.
Looking for pictures...

Thanks found it. Ran a hose up the drain but it is still slightly leaking in cab. Coming out of drain pretty good?

I would not say quick or easy, but it can be done. Thanks to our FTE brother AllaboutMPG he cracked the nut for us. I plan to do this during my winter modfest part 2.
Details are below.

You won't be able to get access to the drain hole at the bottom of the evaporator housing through the blower hole. I could barely get my hand in there to clean the fins on that side with the blower out. Also, the evaporator coil is up against the housing on the passenger side and I think the drain hole is closer to the drivers side and at the bottom. You cannot even see the drain hole, let alone get access to it.
Although, with the instructions AllaboutMPG gave us you can thoroughly clean the coil fins and clean the drain blockage. It will probably take a couple of hours, but your efforts will be paid in a dry cabin floor and probably cooler and stronger air into the cabin.

Sure it not the heater core leaking? Unless you did the air mod you have coolant in the heater core when the air is on. So it could be either or I would guess. Let us know what fix fix's your problem.

Only drips after AC being on for 5 minutes or so. I plan to put a 90 on the end of the drain. The engine fan puts pressure and restricts the flow coming out. The 90 will keep that from happening and it will direct the flow better and stop the water from being blow everywhere.
