    What's the strangest thing you've ever found?

    A couple of weekends ago I did my neighbor's 2009 black Acura TL. They have 2 kids and a baby. I spent 30 minutes pulling all kinds of junk out from under the seats - toys, food, clothes, DVD's, etc. At some point I began to get nervous about what else I might find, but fortunately everything I dug out was kid friendly. But that got me thinking...I bet you guys who do this for a living have run across some really interesting stuff!! So, I'm curious, what's been the strangest thing you've ever discovered while detailing someone's car?

    Re: What's the strangest thing you've ever found?

    When I turned 18 and got my license, my mom gave me her car for my first car. After owning it for a few months, I got the urge to install car audio equipment. I took out the back seat to run wire and I found a pack of dentyne ice like this one.



    I looked at the back and I forget the exact date but it was about 4-5 years old. I think around 2002. No idea how it got under the seat. But I popped one out and it was still good!

    Umm, well, it wasn't during a detail that I found this, but actually when I was doing a brake job for a co-worker several years ago. I was looking for her lug key in the glove box and came across a bottle of "personal lubricant." Strange place to store that stuff!

    I have found dead bugs and flies under the seats except that nothing out of the ordinary!
