    So I am bringing lunch back to work for some of my coworkers yesterday, I have two large Cokes in a tray in the passenger floor board, I have to do some emergency braking and the cokes end up in the floorboard :mad:. I have the weathertech digi liners, but by the time i could get pulled over the coke had found its way off the liner and onto the carpet/ TRD floor mats. ( I will take this moment to curse the stupid people and there run a way toyotas that caused Weathertech to have to put holes in my liners)

    What is the best way to clean up this mess?

    How large of cokes were they that the cupholders wouldn't work & why would wii be doin emergency braking with them & how much made it thru the TRD floor mats? Cleanup should just be pull the TRDs out and wash them down and wash coke off WTs and just put the WTs back in by themselves and use cupholders or milk crate tied to cleat in bed for stuff like that.

    BTW, I'm sure there is some black or grey RTV that'll fill those holes for future similar escapades.

    Actually I think this combo helped saved the floor carpet from major staining. I have been meaning to pull the TRD mats out, just have not had time.

    The soda did make its way onto some of the carpet, i scrubbed it with a laundry soap/water mixture and it came out.

    The cups were to big to side by side in the cup holder, next time they are riding in the back of the truck
