Why don't you just back into the driveway? j/k
Like yeshua said, you get used to it. Used to do it mute radio everytime leaving the house. Now 10 months later, I'm not doing it nearly as often.

Have you tried that Prestone Interior Cleaner? That stuff works great and I hear it gets all sorts of stains out. Not sure about purple markers though but it may be worth a try. Got a bottle at wally world for less than $4.00, tax included. Definitely handy to have around...even my boyfriend who details cars for a living couldn't believe how well it worked. He's used to using commercial products though, so he had never tried it. He's getting quite the education since I joined this forum and now I am able to do more than talk the talk...I can walk the walk. He's still shaking his head over the fact that I swapped out my 1 disc with a 6 disc and put in my own radio controls. In fact, he's been telling all his car buddies what I've been doing...and they are like "say what"? I say..."who said a girl can't do car stuff? Check it out boys."

Yeah, I tried that and it didn't work. It was probably left uncapped for a few days in the hot sun. A buddy of mine told me about using shaving cream... I think I'll use that as last resort. May be I can just dye the whole thing purple?! Orange exterior and purple interior... I'll be pimpin' then!

Now...wouldn't that be a sight? You could bring it to Denver and take it down East Colfax.

That's exactly why we bought the extended interior/exterior warranty. We have a 9 year old who is constantly spilling stuff!

I hear ya on the seats, but I also wish there was some sort of light under the hood for working on stuff at night.
