Mouse made it's home inside the cabin air vent system. They have died in there! Stinks like heck! I have vacuumed from the inside where the Cabin Air Filter resides. Where can I find the intake opening for this vent? It seems stuffed with material and need to clean this vent out to the outside air source.

You will see there is a door on the firewall of your truck, hidden underneath all of the wiring and such on the passengers side of the truck. You can only get to it through the bottom of the truck. You will actually need to jack the vehicle up pretty high in order to access it. The easiest thing to go is attach a flexible small diameter hose (use duct tape) to the end of your vacuum and slide it in past the cabin filter in order to clean out the rest of the area you wish to clean. The inlet has mesh covering on it to prevent any objects, such as insects and the like to get into the air system, so you will not be able to clean it from the outside.

To get rid of the lingering smell, I suggest you go to the auto parts store and pick up ozium. It is a neutralizer and will break down the ***** smell you are bound to incur. Spray a liberal amount all over the area that has been touched bu mice, as they drag their bodies and ***** could be everywhere they went. Otherwise, I suggest a good shampooing and still lot of ozium. This is not going away overnight. To get rid of the lingering smell, I suggest you go to the auto parts store and pick up ozium.
