Okay I was pulling my interior to install my new dash & backpad. Down by my seat hinge I see some rust around the hinge mount. It was between the sound deadening factory stuff & the mount. It started around the mount & worked it's way across. I had one tiny hole through & some spots if it hadn't been seen would have gone through. Another gift from my car sitting outside at the wrench who screwed me a while back. He just keeps giving & giving (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) .
So I scraped all the sound deadening off on the rear drivers side pan. I treated it with some rust stuff I have. Tonight I scraped off most the front sound deadening. It was great with the exception of a little more around the pedal. I can tell it is just surface rust but it is coming out. I plan to use bedliner to redo the floor. Then I am going to paint it L80E to match my car. Here are a few pics to check out of the area mostly scraped up. I haven't started on the passenger side but if it has the same issue I will get some before pics. What have you used to replace the sound deadening (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Attached image(s)

Also check the edge where the floor meets the longs and rear firewall. See if you can poke through. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |
