What is this

Can anyone tell me what these two hoses connect to? They are hanging down on the passenger side. I never worried about them until now. I think they have something to do with my ac but not 100% sure.

Looks like maybe the connections for the under dash AC vents.

I believe they should have an orange & green stripe & they go to the fresh air valve behind the passenger side kick panel.

Sorry, I thought you were asking about the air ducts when you said "hoses".

If there not hook to anything at other end, just pull them out and throw them away, less weight in car makes it faster LOL. when I work on my cars, I almost always have a left over bolt or two, I think my one car is down 60 pounds, since then , I think it is faster.

I looked in my manual last night and saw that as well. Do I have to remove anything to plug them back in or is this something easy?

Just have to pull the passenger kick panel. Check the end on you v-lines and make sure they are not split, if so cut them back a little and plug in. Can't remember which line goes to which on the diaphragm. If yah have any trouble let me know I'll go out and look.
