It looks like it's leaking through where the seal or weatherstrip is at the top of the windshield. I wonder if I can get that fixed/replaced or if I have to buy a whole new windshield.

It just needs to be resealed. Def glass shop needs to do it though. Maybe needs a new weatherstrip also.

Speaking of carpet, how long does it take to remove the whole interior carpet? It only requires removing the front seats, right?

What kind of car. Some cars have clips in the center console holding up the carpet too. Watch out for those but the seats will have to come out depending on how much you plan to remove. The whole interior is a one piece carpet so if you want to take it all out all the seats have to come out.

You also gotta remove the center console or cut the carpet. I used to do this all the time @ my dad's car lot. Hail damaged cars, he was buying & fixing. They'd be rained in, cause the windshield was broken out. Pull the carpet, take it to the car wash. Spray abunch of degreaser on it. Let it soak, then hit it with the soap, then a final rinse. Let sit in the sun, a day or 2. DONE. Maybe alittle fabreeze. LOL>
