There was no air coming out of blowers, no ac, no defog. Opened up the blower motor and there was a mouse nest. Looked in the heater unit and out came 5 pounds of lentils! Acorns and crap everywhere. Spent the weekend stripping everything out, all trim, carpet, plastic down to the metal body. Well i was going to do this anyway. Every 100 pounds is some % better fuel economy, better power to weight, acceleration, hill climb, handling, rolling resistance. Well see how much weight i take out. I already have most everything removed. Soon to be gone is entire hv battery, computers and what i can get away with to keep the 12 volt charged. The hatch is super heavy. It'll have to come out when the boat tail goes in.
