Default plugged a/c drain

I'm almost certain I've got a plugged a/c drain. My only question is where its located. I know its on the passenger side of the engine bay, but do I have to remove the battery to get to it? Is it easier from the top or the bottom of the car?

It's easier from under the car.
It is an L shaped piece of rubber, not real easy to see, but about 1 inch on each leg of the rubber. A fine piece of wire, poked in, will usually unplug it. It will probably leak onto your face. Do it soon, as the water will likely drip on or near the BCM computer in the footwell of the passenger side.
