I stripped my 88, took everything out includding the center consol and front kick panels. Also took those rear plastic covers to the insine of the quater panels were exposed and i rock guarded everything. Its a heck of a lot nicer than it was before. The carpet was holding water wich probably woulda led to some rust too. And i just cut the carpet off at the back of the seats there cuz in mine it connected. Looks sharp and is easy to clean and i feel that the inside of my quater panels are protected
