Both front seats have a seam that has come loose from use and results in a hole on each. Both front seats have holes punched into them and are showing signs of wear also. (SEE PHOTOS) There are Three (3) rows of seats behind the front seats. These are designed for three (3) passengers on each seat, and the fourth row seat is completely gone. However the brackets in the floor are there. The Headliner is there but has some 'extra' holes in it and some stains (dirt) on it plus some scratches in it. The headliner above the Passenger area is really discolored. ALL of the Ventilation grills are missing from the headliner as well. The air DOES circulate properly to each of the vent holes in the headliner though. The rear seats (all three) are in fair shape as they are sporting wear marks and tears as well. there is frabic missing on the edges or ends of a couple seats and the backs of the seats have been cut on or torn. The floor matt is pulled loose and bunched up between the front seats and the first seat in the Passenger compartment. There are several small holes on the dashboard and some small cracks, and there is still a microphone holder mounted near the drivers right knee area. The console has been cut / carved on. The steering wheel has also been cut or carved on and is missing the Cruise Control button on one side of the steering wheel center. The passenger side sun visor is coming apart. The interior dome light switch that should be located in the drivers side door opening is missing and the dome lights do not come on when only that door is opened. The Passenger entry doors can NOT be opened from the outside of the van. They WILL open from the inside though. The interior is Gray and has a Black vinyl floor mat. EXTERIOR: FRONT: Hood has a small dent on bottom edge closest to the grill and several chips in the paint and some scratches. The Bumper has several chips in the paint and some scratches and a little rusty spot just left of center.
