dave, looks like you have some of that damn adhesive that held the sound pad on to remove. i started with 3M adesive remover. way too much elbow work, plus your face is in fumes,hazmat gloves, big mess. then a fellow owner suggested i try gumout carb and choke cleaner. i sprayed it on and let it work for a while. the adh came off like a breeze. plus a couple of cans of g.o. are much cheaper than a qrt. of the 3M. then i used one of those abrasive impregnated nylon wheels in my cordless to clean up any resid. i figured it saved me hours in that open engine compartment.

I noticed in the rear fender behind the battery tray, you don't have the two holes that I have. Are mine supposed to be there? When I saw them on mine, I thought they would spray water and mud up into the engine compartment. I don't remember anything going through them whenI stripped down the car.

does your front trunk floor have a big sq hole in it? if so those could have been for a/c hoses.

I'm looking to get to that bare metal stuff. Either stripper or blast, haven't decided whats more messy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

I had to replace the front trunk floor (see earlier thread) as the PO had cut a hole with a torch to open the front trunk due to a broken cable. Real smart...
