Hello All,

Trying to put the interior back in and I am not sure if the hole in the picture had something going through a grommet or just a plug. I cant find any pics that show it before I took it apart, all have something in the way. Any help is appreciated!! Thank you, Jeff

I'm 95% sure that is a drain for the A/C system. On my car, there was a hose running through there, with a sealed grommet of course to keep out weather. My A/C was no longer functional so when I removed it from the car I just capped this off with a rubber plug sealed with some sort of weatherproofing.

Hope that helps.

Mike.

My car has a factory rubber plug in that hole. There was no factory A/C until 73-74 (?) and this hole is too high for a drain coming all the way from the passenger footwell area. Purpose = unexplained.

Thanks for the replies, I was pretty sure it was a plug in my car and wanted to verify before installing the center console. Jeff

I've got the same vintage car as jfa.series1 does, and have a plug in that hole, also.

Here's a picture from 1976 AC-60. Throttle pedal on the lower left for reference.

Make someone happy and think outside the North American box....

The picture is what it is. I wonder if Australian or British FSM's have the same drawings, or if they get their own.

Yep, same place as my neighbor's "dealer installed in 1972 A/C drain tube exits.
