    febreeze on every cloth surface before running off to brush the teeth in the morning helps keep it smelling fresh too.

    If you have access to a wet/dry vacuum, use baking soda and water mixture to soak into the butt part of the seats to neutralize the butt smell then suck out the filthy dirt with the vac. Then use car seat covers over the seats and wash them periodically. Walmart sells those seat beads thing for $6 which work great to keep a thin layer of air between your butt, back and the seat. Use a zip tie at the top and 3/8th inch rope into that to the bar near the bottom of the back of the seat to tie a trucker's hitch to.

    Nah, they don't want them back. They're scrap, and you don't even sign for them.

    When I got issued all my stuff the other day I noticed there was a check box for smoke tarp. They don't give them out as standard though.
