Where does the A/C hose enter the cabin

I removed all of the A/C components years ago and can not remember where the hose carrying the A/C air enters the cabin. I know it comes out of the central vents but I can not remember where it enters the dash area. I am taking the car up to the mountains this weekend and would like to plug the entrance so that the cold air from the mountains doesn't get in. The car is an 82 SC
Thanks
Steve

In my car the Cold air for the passenger compartment enters through a tube that goes through hole in back of the smugglers box

There were three openings in the smugglers box in my 82 sc that I just plugged last weekend with a rubber cap from a plumbing supply store, a plastic pipe cap and block off plate I made out of a thin sheet of steel. The rubber cap has a built in hose clamp and it fit perfectly. Will post a photo shortly.

Here is the rubber cap with built in hose clamp from the plumbing store:


This image shows the plastic pipe cap as well, I painted it black...


The odd shaped hole in the footwell is where put in the piece of sheetmetal. I used the plastic trim as a template and used the original screws. Painted that black as well. If you want an additional pic of that let me know. Total cost of the three items was under $5.
