Or maybe not on consideration. Whenever my aircon drains have blocked I get the water dumping noisily out of the tray on cornering. Ever since I trimmed the orange drain tube tips that's not happened.

BUT I did find the scuttle full a few weeks ago, so I reckon it's probably overflow from that and has just stayed there since. The fact that it's almost all just on the nearside supports that, I think the overflow from the scuttle always comes through there. Aircon drains overflow both sides.
Anyway, fingers crossed, but I'll take out the (easier) passenger side trim soon and check/clean before I finish this job.
