Lr3 sunroof drain ends

So the one above the passenger fuse box went and with all this heavy rain water is pouing in, has anyone found an off the shelf item to replace that elbow

Perminant fix remove bad original elbow, make new elbow from 1/2" cpvc and a 90* fitting, glue and install, the new pipe fits hole in body perfect and the drain tube fits tight inside it, should never fail or clog, used some right stuff on outside for good measure to seal body

A drain out of a Honda = looks exactly like the one found on an LR3. I fixed mine before I saw the Honda drain. I just used some clear silicone tubing slid firmly over the original drain tube, ran thru the hole in the body with a longer piece vs the OEM nipple & held in place with some thick black duct tape. Zero issues after that repair!
