Endoscope - See inside sills
 
7 Attachment(s)
Following on from 'Blinks' thread about using a endoscope inspection camera to see inside sills, I thought I would have a look inside mine. The images are not the best quality, but you would for sure see any rust that was present deep inside. :eek:

I'm glad to say my sills on my 18 year old ZT seem to be free from rust, but I've only had a quick look; I will have another look once I find the rest of my endoscope kit. :duh:

That looks excellent considering how old the car is. Wonder if it is testamount to the build quality or just that it has not been anywhere with a lot of water on the road. Never the less, it is very good.

Thanks fellas, I didn't know what to expect :eek: but it all seems fine and dandy in there. :D

Once I find the rest of the kit, I will go exploring some more; you can record video as well... :}

There's a big rubber grommet behind the wheel arch liner - one at each end of the sill. Or there are 12 holes under the chrome sill finisher (but you'll break the clips!). Or the 5 drain holes, but I'm not sure how much you can see from these with an endoscope.

I thought I would try the inspection camera on the double din unit, I found the DD supports OTG, so the endoscope was plug and play.

I installed the CD software using the APK installer. ;)
