Default What goes under the seat?
What goes, or is supposed to go, under the passenger seat? I feel like something is missing here? Looks unfinished.

What model, what year?

If 997.2 with Bose premium (most have this I think), then it will be the 5.1 processer/amp where all speaker wires terminate.

Sorry I didn't say the car details.

08 C2S with Bose.

No animal/rodent droppings. Marks are something sticky. Like dried Coke.

in a .1 coupe, nothing goes under there, which is why it becomes a great place for drink bottles to get trapped, then probably crushed when someone lowered or moved the seat, which is why you have residual Coke drippings and sticky stuff under there.

Well, I guess I need to get in there and clean that out. Probably throw some sound deadening under there. Maybe that will make it a little more finished looking...

Yep, you just never know when someone might look under your seat.

I would be interested in what it looks like with the seat slammed.
I noticed that even my wife rides with the seat all the way down even though she complains that it feels like her butt is going to scrape a reflector, lol.

Also, I wonder if an extra rear floormat would fit that spot to cover it?
I am definitely going to look under there now!!

If my wife ever scraped her butt on a reflector, I'd get a new wife and a new floor pan and definitely in that order.
