when you dose the carpet, you should detach it and sitck some wood blocks underneath so it will dry out.

when you do that you will find on the inside of the rocker panel---are a couple of plastic plugs... 2inches plus in diameter, there will give you access to the inside of the rocker panel. One of these could be dislodged. so in addition to the rocker panel filling up with water the plug may be letting the water inside.

You do know that the drains for the rockers are along the seam under the car. Six of them (I think) running front to back. Small rectangular shaped slots. Shove a popsicle stick up the slot to find out if it's clear. If you hose water into the vent grill it should pour out of the front slots.
