I really need some help on identifying this problem...i was coming home from school the other day and i saw smoke coming up through my shift boot. It wasnt a whole lot of smoke...less than a cig puts out. It smelled kinda like burning rubber or plastic. i thought it might be some faulty wires from the ciggarette lighter or the mirror switch but was neither. I dont know a whole lot about car when it comes down to it...so any advice would be apprecitaed.
