Weird object between dash and windshield, please advise

Good thing I usually keep a water bottle in the left door bottle holder. That should balance things out, right?

Handling went to crap on my car, then I realized I needed windshield washer fluid.

Object looks like a piece of tree bark

I thought my car had even less power than usual, and then I realized all the dirt was causing more friction while driving!

Yeah that's what I initially thought, or a dead bug like I mentioned earlier because of the ants I'd seen last week.

My handling slowly went to shit, then I checked the dipstick. It was in between the dots. Last oil change it was toward the top dot. Totally different car.

And yet I'm not the one that got freaked out, made a post on the forum, and wanted to go to the dealer to fix it.
Or do you want me to hold your hand and tell you it's going to be ok?

Sarcasm bro. Welcome to the internet.

Hahahaha. Well when a car is your first car that you've just made a big investment in, then sometimes something random is enough to get a bit worried.

And sarcasm is one thing, but you didn't add anything to the conversation other than being the typical internet jerk. That's your problem, not mine.

Since this is my first car I thought the E on the fuel gauge meant "Extreme", so I couldn't wait for the line to get there.

But instead of having extreme fun I realized E means expensive because expensive gas, and while that's one extreme, it's not the one for me. Now I'll sell my car for 300 bucks!

Isn't this just a standard feature for the 86?

Remove car surrounding foam piece, replace with new car.

I get a stupid rattle occasionally from that speaker grill..I would stuff it back in. For all I know mines missing :\ too scared to take the cover off for fear of making it worse.

Yeah, I ended up grabbing my multitool needle-nose pliers and basically pushed it back in as far as I could. Decided not to try messing up the cover. It's been a couple weeks now and I haven't noticed it popping back out. I'm guessing maybe one of the really hot days caused it to expand or something and that's why it popped out in the first place.

Yup. I get a buzz randomly since I replaced the tweeters
