Well as today progressed, I got out my shop vac, and got the majority of the standing water out, the spent an hour sponging the carpet with a towel, then removed all valuables, and left the windows down and sunroof open all day, tossed the floor mats in the dryer, and are in my room. Drove about 70 or 80 for half an hour to circulate the air in the car. Seems to be dry so lets hope for the best. Where is the tcm? and should I be worried about water under the carpet? Like i said, I drove around all day and the car seems to be ok, but it is a tip....

I was just looking online and saw a suggestion to roll up the windows and use the ac full blast, as well as coffee grounds/kitty litter in a pan. Thoughts?

Yeah the A/C dries the air, put it on recirc, and kitty litter would absorb water in the air.. If the outside air is real dry, leaving the windows open should be good enough Id think.
