Default Ac drain lines on 99 xj8

Does anyone know where the Ac drain lines come out under the car? Mine are clogged I have water in my floor and I can't see where to find them? Pictures or any help would be great!

The drains are on the left and right sides of the center console. Attached is an excerpt from the tech manual.

Looks like the tubes exit out into the transmission hump.

Samilcar thanks for opening the document. Another drain thaat plugs up and causes flooding is the windscreen/facia drain on the right hand corner of the facia. If it is the passenger side only then it is probably the culprit. The drain can be accessed after removing the facia or also can be found exiting the bottom of the car just forward of the front door seam. You have to rub around until you find a little flexible nub sticking out.

Found my issue. Pulled up front carpet and saw my drain line had come loose from the evaporator. Can we say shiiiiiiit! Now I have to pull the seat and pull up the carpet since thst nice spongy thing under it is full of water. 😥😥😥
