[QUOTE="Gen1TillDeath, post: 1776823, member: 54730"] You have 3 options. 1. There may be enough slack to pull the end of the drain line out from inside the rocker from underneath just by removing the tape and getting a plastic barb fitting to fit into the end of the line and attach a a larger piece to get out from inside the rocker. My left side was JUST long enough for me to do this. 2nd: detach the rear portion of the sunroof to gain access to where the beginning of the black drain hose is connected to the nipple of the drain track of the actual sunroof drain and again, getting a barb fitting to extend a longer piece so that you can pull more down from the underside inside the rocker. 3rd: remove the plastic trim along the side of the inside of the cab where the seatbelt is and cut the hose in half and AGAIN, making it longer by attaching a barb fitting. You’re gonna need to remove most of the plastic trim pieces along the side of the cab to get the headliner pulled down far enough anyway. I chose to disconnect my right side from the nipple of the sunroof drain framing and install the barb and insert a longer piece of tubing so I could pull more hose down to get it out of the rocker. It’s not hard at all, just a little tedious. Also I will add i would HIGHLY recommend making sure your 3rd brake light is sealed COMPLETELY because water will drain from there into the rockers aswell. Personally I believe this is where alot of the damage comes from because I see SCREW’s with NO sunroof but just obliterated cab corners… [/QUOTE]
