Odd question

I have two old disposable cameras that were supposed to be developed by
2001. Can anyone tell me if I can still get them developed/have good
quality?

Not long back I was cleaning out an old derelict car that I had in my
backyard before taking it to the scrappers. In the glovebox I found a
couple of disposable cameras that I used in '98. One was completely
used, the other still had a handful of shots left on it, so i ran it out
then got them processed. Bear in mind that this had sat for about 5
years in the glovebox of a car, in the scorching australian sun, so they
probably spent a fair bit of time up around 60 degree celsius. Anyway,
the shots that I had previously taken were pretty crook - some odd
colour shifts, a few marks that looked like light leaks, and overall,
very thin negs. The prints were recognisable, but not real good. The
shots that I took with it to use up the remaining unexposed film had a
slight colour shift, but were otherwise fairly acceptible.

Heat is the enemy of film. If they haven't gotten too hot for too long, then
you should get some reasinable prints. Expect color shifts and low contrast.
I wouldn't pay top dollar for processing.
