I should have fused my power line going to my amp but i got too lazy and paid the price…i don’t have pics to post…but anyway how do you remove the smell from the car? I’ve sprayed deoderizing spray into the fresh air intake with the vents on full blast and it helped a bit but i can still smell burnt plastic and the bit of the carpet that got melted. Cosmetic damage isn’t anything big…you can’t even spot it unless your looking for it and the amp is still good FTW ---

Actually shampooing the carpet would do it, then you can spray it down with whatever. ---

it can be fixed for 3 dollars…use coffee…coffee is a natural deodorizer, not many people know that. wherever the fire started, like if its in your trunk, get a few cups of coffee, and sprinkle it on the carpet. wait about 12 hours, and vacuum it up, the smell will be gone…and i am being serious ---

clean up best you can and put a spread open bag of charcoal inside and close windows, charcoal sucks up the scent
