Default find the dead mouse

in my car! phew it stinks!

it's not in the heating system, it wasn't under
the back seat, but i did find a nest under the
carpeting along the edge of the back seat. no
dead mouse in it though. it's not under or in the
wheel well for the spare. nor is it anywhere i
can see along the edges of the trunk or under
that carpeting.

what i need is a nice enough day again where i
can air the car out and then sit there and see if
i can trace the stink back to the source (yes, i'll
have a shower sometime before then).

thanks to youtube i was able to find out how to
take out the back seats. there was some chewing
going on in the foam under there and a stinky spot
where the mice were peeing but not nearly as bad
as i expected it to be. no dead mouse tho.

any other ideas of spots to look? i've looked
in the central console where the shifter and parking
brake are at, also looked up under the dash, but see
no signs of anything like mouse nest. it may be in
one of the side panels along the seats in the back
but that might take some study to figure out how to
get into those places.

or i just leave it to stink up the car until it
freeze dries this winter? ew... ah well...
