What have you found under your car seats?
Not too long ago I removed the seats from my '85 300D to clean out any trash that had accumulated there over the years. I found a small assortment of nuts, bolts, small car parts and yes lots of trash.
I also found several dollars in change as well.  What have you found?

Most peculiar (in a mysterious sense) thing I found was when I cleaned my Dad's car out after I borrowed it to go out with a bunch of friends on Friday night after school. It was a 1967 Pontiac Bonnieville Wagon. Big car. Gold. We called it the gold lizard. Big, Big engine. Big enough for an undetermined number of kids. This was 1969.
Anyway: girls panties, worn. I brought'm to high school the following Monday. Nobody ever claimed them.

Last time I was cleaning under the rear seats of my wagon I found a white thin piece of plastic with the following part number:
A 001 546 08 35. Also has a plus (+) sign on it. Anyone know what it is?

I found change, some sticky substance that once were some kind of candy and -again, french fries! What is it with those french fries under the back seat? Are they already there when you buy a new MB? :p

The 1984 300SD was purchased from a so-called "Christian" organization. (Now I'm not being negative on religion, far from it, but when you mix "money" and "religion" you may end up with less "religion"
) It had been donated to them by a member to be driven by the organization's Grand Poohbahs and then later sold.Not one red cent anywhere in the car........ ! ! ! ! I did find a business card with a nice red lipstick kiss on the back. (An actual lipstick kiss, not a print.) First time I've EVER gotten a used car without some change under the seats or under the carpet. Ken300D

The PO of my 'SD *never* cleaned the car unless he was going on a date (I said never...) and inbetween two of the rear floor mats I found a 10" round saw blade. Under the front seat was a good handfull or two of used sunflower seeds. Under the drivers seat was a check from his parents for 80 dollars or so. Plus everything else you guys have mentioned... (minus the panties
 )The car is much cleaner now John '79 300SD

Notably, an 11 year old bottle of peach schnapps, full and a spare set of keys to the old girl.
