Well you should start by replacing those. Since this isnt in a generation specific forum, the year of your car will help also. I dont really see how antifreeze can make it into the driver/passenger compartment though. Have you tried pulling the carpet away and sticking your head under the dash to see where the leak could be originating from?

Just call me chris.
if its leaking in your floor board its the heater core. the heater in most cars is heated by the hot antifreeze. blower motor blows on the core thus blowing hot air into the car.
