You might just need a little longer hose to route it forward another few inches before it turns toward the driver.
I wish I would've taken a picture before I put this box in to remember what it looked like behind there. From what I can see, by the time you get the adapter on, the hose has to take a pretty sharp bend up and to the left to get past the evap line with the sticky wrap on it. They already don't give you enough hose, but I lost four or five inches to a heat gun incident. The system, minus the ducting is a decently thought out install. The ducting is absolutely horrendous though. It could definitely be manifolded better imo, with the clips on the panel, they wouldn't have to change the whole case design either.

Off to the shop to see what I can do with it..
