Terminal fitting for expansion valve drain through front panel

I have three of these that i have found whilst rummaging through parts bins today taking better images of parts

They may be of interest to some one who is plumbing in their LR (which i think defeats the purpose of buying an LR, but anyway) who wants to terminate the expansion valve drain through the front panel from where it can drip down onto the drip tray grate - there are many ways to do it and this is not necessarily the best way - i think if i was doing it i would probably drill through the front panel lower down so the drain came into the back of the drip tray as high as possible, but below the drip tray grate.  i would then cut out a notch in the grate to let the drain in and then a notch in the top of the grate in the same place

i hope it goes without saying that if you drill though the powder coated zintec chassis that you will need to put some kind of corrosion protection in place if you dont want rust to form where you have drilled the hole through the chassis

i will part with these for £10 each plus carriage - they were a short custom run in 2012 and that is all there will be
