So I'm trying to blitz the TR8 interior for a long distance tournig event and the next item up now that the carpers are out is the seats (thanks agains guys for the input on the other threads).

Make sure to read all the way through...

Step One - Off with the covers

Step Two - Off with the foams

The bag was stuffed up into the seat foam near the front of the seat.

I'll bet the PO was a chef in an Italian restaurant or a pizza place. Why else would someone stuff a bag of Oregano up in the seat cushion like that?? :angel: LoL

So that oregano has gone bad by now, I'm sure.

I take it that you've properly disposed of it.

How big a bag is (was) that? Still have the aroma?

Not sure, I was pretty square in high school and college so my pot measurement skills are pretty much non-existent. It was about 1/3 full before it started falling out.

No smell at all.

When I replaced my seat skins in the TR6 I found a wooden fondue fork hidden in the drivers seat bottom foam. "Take out fondue anyone?"

Lucky the prince of darkness never set fire to your seats!
