Minor leaks inside post wash

[cafe_racer]

So I got my stock a/c removed and classic retrofit installed. Washed the car today and noticed some water in the passenger footwell and cables below the centre console. 
 

unsure if the new a/c may be causing issues.  maybe this has been happening and I missed it till today. 
 

eirthwr way based in the pic highlighting the wet areas any tips on diagnosing?

 

thanks!

My guess, have a look at the drain from the new air box unit.  Rainwater? (myth), wash water and evaporator water needs to escape somewhere.

My first thought too

 

geez. This classic retrofit has been a giant ball ache.

The factory evaporators were known to leak onto the pax floor too.

From the instal instructions:

Secure    the    blower    using    the    two    screws  through    the    vent    opening    as    per    the    original.        You    can    use    either    side    drain    hole    or    both.        There    is    a    blanking    cap    in    the    pack.        Either    drain    into    the    original    tube    or    through    the    steering    rack    cavity.        
Unfortunately, we    couldn’t    make    the    drain    tubes    exactly    line    up    (our    tube    needed    to    be    at    lowest    
point)    so    an    ‘S’    bend    may    be    required.

May be worth checking.

I found this interesting
