e39 air conditioner leak

My 2000 528i is leaking water into the front passenger footwell when the air conditioner has been on for a while. Based on my research, this is because the two drains on the underside of the car (located on either side of the guibo), are clogged. The common remedy is to blast air into the hoses to clear them out. I've done this and it didn't fix anything. I can see a little water dripping out of the drains, but not as much as one would think should.

Car is currently drying in the garage with the carpets all pulled up.

Any thoughts? Other drains I should be checking?

Thanks

Did you also blow compressed air in the evaporator tubes?
If you don't have a compressor at home, a gas station or self-service car wash usually has a hose that you might be able to get away with this.
Let us know if that helps!
