and smelled of mildew. Anybody know of a good way too clean this other than getting a detailer to shampoo it?

Default Use a dry towel and wipe off damp carpet and ....

leave doors (or windows) open and let the carpet air dry. Then spray carpet with fabreze (fresh scent is my favorite) to get rid of damp carpet odor. Hope this helps

Default Let the car idle for a couple of hours, with the heat on max , floor output only.

Leave the sunroof poped up . That will do the trick.
