Lol, thanks John. There are worse things that could happen, so I'm just glad it was repairable. There was only one squirrel that got in the garage so no need to gas them out. I'm just causing a bit of terror in the squirrel community by picking them off around my garage. I love animals, but the wire chewing tree rats have to go! -

WOW....I am just reading this now. Glad you figured it out. Everyone always points to GMs lack of quality control as the issue. No accounting for rodents.
I had a family of mice take up residence and DIE in the door panel of my old C4 one time. The smell was horrible and it took a while to get rid of it. From that point on I always set traps where I am storing my car. I have not had any issues since then.Comment

Yeah, I feel you. Had rodents chew through the cabin filter and chewed on the leather seats in my S4. Over $11,000 to get factory seat skins installed, no after market covers...Originally posted by shawnguess View Post'21 2LT Coupe, Torch Red over Black w/ microfiber, Z51, GT2 seats, FE4 mag ride, J6N edge red calipers, E60 front lift, Q8Q Carbon Flash wheels

In my garage in the desert in Palm Springs, CA we would get all sorts of rodents. Desert mice (Kangaroo mice), squirrels, etc. They chewed some wiring on my 66 Mustang when I got it and they were chewing their way into my sealed and latched dog food bin.
I put out a few traps and caught a grand total of one Kangaroo mouse and zero squirrels, problems persisted. I got those ultrasonic pest repellers and never saw hide nor hair of another one.Comment

I have found that placing unused fabric softener sheets made to go in clothes dryers keeps critters out. I place two inside the passenger compartment, one in the storage and one on top of the engine. No critters for years.Comment
