So after working a 15+ hour day, I got off the train last night and cruised home with windows and sunroof open. Got home, rolled up the windows and went to bed.
Woke up in the middle of the night to a torrential downpour. The wife was woken up too and says something to the effect of "I hope I closed my sunroof." I didn't even give mine a second thought - in fact I took comfort in the fact that mine was closed and drifted off to sleep for another hour or two. When I walked out to leave for work today I discovered that her's was closed and mine wasn't.
My front seats were soaked. Like soaked through, made a wet noise when you touched them. I grabbed a couple of the best bath towels we have, got as much out as I could quickly and then headed off to work sitting on a towel.
Didn't have a chance to get to it until about an hour ago. The seats have dried considerably, however they are still wet to the touch. I tried using my wet/dry vac to extract some of the water. It may have worked, but I think it just brought some more to the surface.
I went to the local quick detail shop and they had closed for the day. I would have paid for whatever type of extraction they use to clean seats.
TL;DR - Seats soaked from rain after stupidly leaving sunroof open. So I'm wondering what my best options are here to get the long term damage sorted out. Seats are SEL Leather / microfiber. Thanks!
