None of those tell me about where the hose is or gives me a diagram I've been searching all day yesterday and I have seen those already

it goes from the firewall to the condenser. trace the hose. it has to be completely discharged before you unhook it tho.

Ohhhh it's discharged alight there's a big ol hole in it. Do you think I'll need device position for this or can I fish it in there?

Can somebody take a picture of the hose or the area and make an arrow to it? Just for reference. I know it's the discharge hose I was told by the local shop but as far as which one I need to remove and replace
