Only the rear passenger seat on the driver's side and the floorboard...problem is the seat is a spilt fold and tumble and water is just sitting in that thing.

Is there a place in BR that deals with this?

If he moves fast he could get a car detailing place to steam clean the inside of his car. I've used h2o auto spa for this before. No promises but that's probably your best shot.

Just let it dry out and it'll be fine. I left my sun roof open through a storm once. Dry up any water then just air it out for awhile and you're good to go

Thanks for the suggestion, they're booked until the 2nd though.

Any other places in town?

Benny's can shampoo seats but I don't know if they steam clean or what.

Dry it out as much as possible then leave it running with the A/C cranked on high for hours. Like 8 hours.

Go to a boat or rv place and get some moisture absorber. May be able to get it at academy, basspro it cabelas. DampRid is a brand though they may have others.

Dry as much as you can...Turn the AC on and let it sit for a few hours running. Also go to the auto store or Home Depot and get some dehumidify crystals. I have done this and it helped.

Just crack the windows and let it air dry for a while and it will be fine

ETA: if it starts to smell, just sprinkle some baking soda on it and let it sit before you vacuum it up

This is a rather circuitous way to announce that you're gay.

Whatever dude. We don't care.
