Where is the AC drain hose on a 2002 Mitsubishi Montero?

Exactly where you said it was - at least for my 2002 Montero XL!. After trying several posted solutions by other helpful folks, this one did the trick. I never would have been able to find it without being told where to feel for it. I never saw it - only by touch!! It felt like a hard little plastic spout, instead of the rubber tube I'm used to seeing. Exactly where you said it was - at least for my 2002 Montero XL!.

Indeed - NO HOSE (just end of small white plastic pipe that sticks out) attached to it on my 2002 Montero XLS (3.8, manual A/C), can be reached from top of the enginge compartment (driver's side - central line on the firewall). Just below it runs a black middle size hose (not attached to firewall). The water comming out of a drain hits the mentioned hose. It can be seen only with a help of additional light just below 2 transversal hoses/pipes that go along the firewall. Little WHITE plastic pipe end just below those two piper. There is just a few milimeter space over thos two transveral sttel-pipes to see the (white) drain below them. To access it with more comfort You need to disconnect 2 harnesses/cable for (not) easy hand access... You can (barely !) reach it with a middle (!) finger but no much space to operate any tool there. So use a firm stiff steel wire (I used wire from a cloth hanger) a bit rounded at the end to access it remotelly and then push/pull a few times until you see water comming out. You need a blanket to lay down on the engine to reach this. The engine must be cold otherwihise You WILL burn Your hand. The stiff steel wire can be leaved there (like a dip-stick) for futher non-problematic access re-dos. :-) Indeed - NO HOSE (just end of small white plastic pipe that sticks out) attached to it on my 2002 Montero XLS (3.8, manual A/C), can be reached from top of the enginge compartment (driver's side - central line on the firewall).
