Default Help with cigar smoke/odor in car

I dunno if this is the right section but I couldn't find any other ones that would be better. So I got a civic but I smoke cigars, the problem is i smoke in the car...The window is down but I can smell the odor when you first get in it in the morning. What is the best way to get rid of the odor.

use some common sense...you gotta stop smoking to get rid of the odor

You can try febreze, and oust spray every time you get out.

Stick a couple of fabric sheets in the car.

Febreeze only last for a couple days.

the car will generally air out with an open window in 24 hrs. u just have to refrain from smoking in there soo often. After hotboxing many a car, i have an idea of how long smoke smell lasts lol.

start slicing your cigars open & put some pine in it then smoke it
make it smell better and you'll feel ALOT better about the situation

sparying febreeze and slices of lemon are not going to eleminate scent of smoke, i recommend getting your car ozoned and purchase a jdm sqaush scent from jhpusa.com and stop smoking pretty sure that will decrease the smell of smoke in your car.

The Civic I just bought was the same way. I used spray can carpet shampoo on the seats (they were really dirty too) and then scrubbed the headliner and interior plastic with a strong degreaser/cleaner like 409. Turned a few rags black on the headliner along...I think that is where a lot of the smoke smell comes from.
