water damage under carpet

i went to the dealer today, to get my oil change, and also to see if there was any water damage in my car, since it had flooded last wknd in houston

they found water, very little though under the right passenger seat, under the carpet and also on the driver side.

its supposed to cost $480 and my deductible is $500.

im thinking i might just do it myself. Are there any instructions posted on this board for removal of seats and carpet???


thanks

Damn guys. I'm glad I have that 4x4 look still!

I hope it doesn't get worse for you guys. Water damage is bad enough, and I hope your car doesn't get ruined over this.
