It drains on the passenger side of the fire wall outside the vehicle or a little closer to the middle, it's been a while but I know it's there. You might be able to use a thin but long tie wrap or zip tie to clean it out. You might also bend the tip and twist it as you go and then pull it out. You want to remove the clog, not push it back in there. Worse case scenario, remove the glove box and see if you're able to find a door to the evaporator and if not you will have to disassemble the dash to remove the air box to access it. This means draining all your coolant and having to also recover your refrigerant from the A/C.
