Default What kind of air freshener do you use?

Here's a silly question, what kind of air fresheners do you guys use? In my older car, I had one of those ones where it had some sort of double-sided adhesive, and not sure if it was a combination of the heat over time or too strong adhesive, but when I finally took it off, it completely ruined the finish underneath. Used some other vent type clipon air fresheners before but they always were so in the way... and I hate those ones that dangle from the mirror. Show me what you use!

I eat a bunch of burritos and sit in my Brides all day. The smell lasts a while, so i guess that's the best bang for the buck.

Hmm come to think of it, that'll give me extra push on acceleration too right?

Thanks for the info --Far more than we needed but never can learn too much as I say ------

Iv been Crazy curious bout that Squash and have a couple sites marked but forget to order it Heard nothin but good stuff bout it ---What I do now is just throw a couple Fab Softener sheets under the seat, Makes me think Im sitting by a Mountain Stream in Spring Time surrounded by Wild Flowers after a refeshing Rain that washes the Landscape in all Natures Beauty.

Oh ---And Birds are singing too.

I have used all the different squash fresheners and the spray works best IMO.

Oh, and specifically I used "Mountain Rain". I think it worked well since it deodorized the carpet (which can have a funky smell due to wet shoes/rain), plus it provides a clean fresh scent. And it's cheap.

WOW.... I did'nt kno they made a spray. But I use the generic style Squash air fresheners... I just bought a few refills from 247motoring.com for decent price. But dayam... A spray, Im about to get this and use it as cologne!

ALSO, Bhasha, I love your ride man. You and Ravi have done some great stuff with your cars. Jus wondering, where did you get your seats? Are they covers?

Thanks! As far as seats...let's say they were done by a company called Apache. Do a search and you'll find more info, or PM me.

I found the thread for the GB. That sucks you had to go through so much. I guess I'll look else where to get my seats done in leather.

Also, +1 on the squash air freshner. I got a few bottles of it from my sister in Japan. Stuff works very well. Lasts nearly twice as long as other freshners I've used.
