Default AC Condensate drip on Headers

Since I've installed my long tubes, my truck sounds like a big bowl of rice crispies when I shut it down. (Snap, Crackle, Pop) It's the condesate from my AC coondensor dripping on my longtubes. Anyone else have this? Figured out a quick fix that doesn't involve NOT using my AC? It's hot down here. lol

Just find a hose that will slip into the little elbow coming out of the firewall where the condensation drips out and redirect the drip some where else.
