You should be able to find your leak squirting the car with a garden hose.

But car carpet is water tight because it's rubber backed. That mean's if water
gets under the carpet it's not going to dry out for a long time. That's not good.
so you might need to take out the carpet or do something to dry the mat before it
gets moldy.
