I was thinking about that but as others have pointed out, I am not sure how well that will work with the foam pads underneath. A long time ago when I worked retail we had this stuff that was hyper absorbent that we used on spills. It was like a powder that was so absorbant it could practically leach blood through your skin. I doubt even that and a wet/dry vac would be enough with the foam there. I suspet the seat will be coming out on wednesday but well see.

It's my under standing I can pull the carpeting for just the passenger side? I really dont need to take all of it out unless I NEED to take all of it out. I would rather just get that side out and dry it and call it a day. |

the transmission tunnel ought to have kept everything on just the passenger side.

oh, i see. the carpet is connected at the rear seat floors between the sides. but a razor blade could make an incision there underneath the plastic cover with no one else the wiser in the future.

I may go with LimitedSlip's suggestion and take a razor blade to it. I think it is concealed by the center console so it shouldnt be an issue to just hack it off in the middle. I know its not really hard work but it is a lot of time to sit there and pull all the seats out in a apartment complex parking lot so id like to minimize all of that as much as possible. |

Sooooooooo..... Remember how I said they stripped the 4th bolt.... welp. Its really in there now. I dried vice grips. Nope. I tried drilling it out, and drilling out broke the bolt extractor inside of it. I have never seen a stupider bolt in my life. This was tightened down WAYYYYY beyond 39 foot pounds. No wonder it stripped. This thing locked up a 200 foot pound impact and broke a damn cobalt AND titanium extractor. The first one broke on the shaft and was easy to get out, the second one broke inside the bolt so now I gotta drill that out too. Went through half a can of WD40 trying to drill that shit out. and now basically gotta start all over.
I guess I will return to drilling later after the rain stops... EDIT: I found a local shop to get that screw out. They drilled 2 holes in the flange and were able to get it out. I started pulling up on the side of the carpet and there is just trash everywhere. Rusty tools, CO2 canisters (IDK what for but, just, why) and a number of other annoying things. It seems water has been getting under there for a while because even jus tfrom the corner I could get up it looks hidious. I am having my friend grab some mold and mildew remover spray and I am just gonna soak it once I whipe up. Its not an inherently new issue I dont think. Just new to me.
