Rem, that's a real nasty story, and imma let you finish, but the dead BAT I found on by back floormat must be one of the nastiest things anyone has ever found in an evo!!!

That is ****ing sick. I live in Irvine and my car is street parked too at the moment (lost her garage spot to the bike). I should check my filter too but I'm afraid...

Well, if you don't have the filter, this can happen to your fan blower . . . https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...2003-viii.html

I didn't find any mice, just their nest. The car is garage parked every night.

Cabin air filters have hardly any pre-filtration. Here's mine from 2000 taken out last fall:
