Mice in rocker panel I own a 1999 Camaro SS all original 14,000 miles. Mice have found their way into the interior of the car through the passenger side rocker panel. have eaten a hole in the headliner from between the roof panel and headliner. Where is the access point from outside the car into the rocker panel and up into the headliner. Looking at the Trans Am build pictures posted by 96famaro I was hoping to be able to determine where it is, but I couldn't.
Thank you

A mouse can get through any hole its head fits through... Only way I've found to keep the bastards out is the post style jack stands at least 24 inches tall and shrink-wrapping the car..
Sticky traps and some strawberry jam do a number on them..

My question is where would that hole be. My assumption was they were getting in through the cabin air intake, I was wrong. I took the heater fan out and found no signs of mice. I was hoping someone could tell me if there is a hole behind the front fender that would allow entry into the rocker. I saw the pictures of the Trans Am build posted by 96famaro. The front fenders were off the car but I couldn't determine by those pictures if that hole exists.
They can literally get through your doors while they are closed. They can also get in through the ventilation system easily. I found them on top of headliners before. They also like to hide behind all the interior panels in the hatch area.
