best way to dry interior carpet??

[iDrive a GS-R]

so as most of you east coasters know we had a shit load of rain yesterday and in my area there was some flooding
idk how my carpet got so wet i didnt drive in any puddles or anything but anyways my whole flooring is moist to the touch and anything i had on the ground is wet
whats the best way of drying it up without cutting the old carpet out?
im thinking just putting the heat on high and let it sit lmao

 

[Spawne32]

air condition lol pulls the moisture out of the air and lets it drip out of the car, but honestly, shop vac converted for water is the only sure fire way to do it fast

yea that was my second idea was to vaccum it out

 

[j13]

Take it out, wash it, dry it, install. while you're at it, get a sponge and a bucket of water and clean the grim under the carpet.

If u don't have a shop vac the coin op vacuum at a gas station works just fine

Just like he stated. Remove the carpet buy a good shampoo or carpet cleaner and clean the shit out of it. While it dries clean the inside of the car with a good cleaner and make sure EVERYTHiNG is dry before u install the carpet back. If it's not fully dry u might get a mildew problem. So don't b lazy damn it. Lol.

When I wash my carpet, I use a shop vac, then I use dry towels, and a second set of dry towels. It get a lot out, but I just let it air dry for a day and its done.

I live in CA where its always 70-80 degrees.
