You should be able to get at it by removing the right lower side panel and pulling the seat bucket. 10mm nut and 2 screws, maybe T25 for the panel.

The 10mm nut is behind the rear of the lower side panel, just underneath the rear tail light, Remove that nut and the two screws at the front of the panel. Pull the rear of the side panel out towards you to about 90 degrees, then it can free itself at the front.

Get it done once, and you'll never forget.

Has the hose split? That's unusual!

To get to the whole hose you'll need to remove the whole knee panel that includes the glovebox, and the floorboard.

How about posting a picture of the hose you are talking about and we can quit guessing. Have a read through this, it might help.

Thanks, yes it split, it appears it was because of the aftermarket crash bar I installed.
