Interestingly clearing water drains is now specifically mentioned in the service schedule of current models..

If you've had water in the air box just check the passenger carpets aren't wet underneath. If they are wet clearing the airbox drain is the least of your worries- see Malcolms pictures for interior strip down to dry carpets!!!
I think you'll be fine IF the drain is kept clear but if your car is parked up anywhere near trees then you'd have to remember to check the drain every few months.
Forgetting to clear the drain can cause so many problems that its probably a good idea to pre-empt any blockage and cut the ends off when you get chance.
What about, wrapping the top heater box grill with the mrs's tights? ...
Thanks Malcolm, did you find the drivers side footwell was also wet on yours?
There are 5 bolts holding in each set and the multi plug connector.
Yes do not turn on once the seats are disconnected. if you are going to do it then I will give you more details,,,
You can lift the passenger side font carpet in the corner by removing the 1 screw hold the side kick panel and sliding the cover off, by just lifting that corner for a time and placing a block under the carpet will allow it to dry out much quicker
