2nd that! I did that to the floor mats of the RSX I just bought and the simple green took out about 90% of the stains. Works good.

Never heard of the simple green method.. Meh. This is what I have been using for the past 4 years. I do it once a month and the carpet gets better looking everytime I use it.

You vacuum your carpet out get up as much as you can, then spray the foam from this all over the carpet, and use the brush to scrub it in.. Then, vacuum again. It pulls all the dirt and dust off the fabric to the surface into something that can be sucked up by the vacuum, and it will leave your car smelling amazing as well.

Do this on your seats and carpet and you'll be more than happy. It's like 4 bucks at Walmart/Target/ any automotive store!

Use Pro Sol on the interior plastics to remove cigarette smoke stains. Comes off sooooo easy compared to windex or any other hosuehold cleaners.

Simple green

If a slob owned the car before you..... the amount of soda that is in the carpet is unreal. Brown water is what came out of my carpet when I sprayed it down. Nasty!!
