Spill in car

So I had a full cup of sweet tea in my cupholder, drove from the place I got the tea and to work about 7 miles. I get to work and the cup is empty. Turns out there was a tear in the cup and it drained into the cup holder area. I opened it to clean the inside and it seems like there is hardly any tea spilt. But I had a whole cup full. Should I be concerned and need to tear the whole console apart or will I be ok letting it evaporate? I'm guessing it all went straight through the car and under it or is it all sitting somewhere near the bottom of the car?

Taking out the center console is simple. Id do it in a heartbeat and clean up the spill!

For floor spills check out weathertech http://www.weathertech.com/service/s...Fc6j4Aod93wAIA Awesome liners, easy to clean and essential for rainy/snowy conditions imo.

I have WeatherTech's in mine and will second their awesome quality and fit.

Regarding the tea.... I'd tear it open for anything with sugar in it. Otherwise it will be a bug-attracting sticky-mess.

And wait until it bakes in the car on a 90* day. Trust me. You want it out now.

Yeah, you don't want the tea to melt/bake onto your car...I'd say take a day to clean it up. who knows, you might find a nickle!

that sucks it happened to me with some lemonade. take it apart and clean it well or everything will be sticky, all you need is a 10mm and a phillips screwdriver i believe.
