HELLS no!! I have neither the space nor the resources (including courage) to shelter and much less feed something that large. Mine is a ball python.

I'm envisioning one of those signs... like "Warning, Car Thieves will be strangled and eaten by the snake onboard". This is the best thead I've ever seen here. Very much looking forward to hearing how it works out

After some more thought you ought to just leave it in there. People pay big bucks for high dollar alarm systems. Nobody would jack your ride.

I'd super glue the mouse to a board and the snake will come. Now watch the animal rights people whine about gluing a mouse down. OK so maybe a mouse sized seatbelt to hold it in place? A nail? Tie it's tail? A glue trap?

A mouse stuck to one of those glue traps set in the back may lure it out!

Alex this has got to have you busy trying to figure out what to do I agree about getting those speaker covers off. I actually tried once I think and I finally just gave up.

Hope you get your friend out soon man

Trying to help ya Alex. I checked my shop manual, and for the life of me..........I can find nothing about snake removal. Looked under Interior, transmission, and AC. Nada.

Are you still under a warrantee? Maybe run it by a dealership. I'm sure they'd just LOVE to fix this issue.
