1 important thing that I learned make sure the heat on both sides and air works ok....those go out quite often and they are expensive to take to a shop to fix..my air mix actuator went out on drivers side and the whole dash has to be removed to fix it...no heat on drivers side. Also make sure the AC is COLD!!

Keep in mind also that I wouldn't consider any of these suggestions deal breakers (except maybe rust depending on how much) but if you find anything wrong you could talk the seller down on the price a little
