im NEVER taking out my seats again after buying a used car.....some things just scare you and make you wonder what the old owners have done to them.

Re: wow just wow

Honestly it's a good idea to do minimal removal the interior including doors and trunk spaces for a little "inspection"... You can't be too careful these days - the previous owner(s) could have used it for smuggling or just driving around getting high... You never know what was left behind for you to get caught with! That's where the old saying "buyer beware" comes in!
