I bet many of us have gone digging in that area for one reason or another... My total excavation story centers around two glass bottles of milk slamming against each other on the way home from the grocery store.

Milk in the carpet, liner, on the spare tire, on the audio system, on the battery, in the body well.... 4 hours later and EVERY component removed. I was all clean and dry once again.

It's good to go digging every once in a while. Kinda gives you the same feeling as a DIY mod.
