    Can anyone tell me where the fresh air intake is for the ac and how to access? A rat has decided to build a nest somewhere between it and the cabin air filter and I need to clean...

    It's in the cowl behind the hood.

    I believe the black covers pop out after removing the wippers

    You were right. Just got it off. FYI there is a plastic mesh that separates the indoors from the outdoors and it can be chewed right through by rodents...

    No mice or rats here in the projects where I live. To many stray cats running around. Just have to remember to rap on the fender well liner a few times before getting in to get the bastards off your engine.
