So I was coming back from happy hour and left the moon roof open. Well that night it rained and needless to say my seats got drenched. I don't know exactly how much water was soaked. But my driver's side seat seems to be more concave in the butt area...

I have meguiar's leather condition so I'll try applying that later but is there anything else I can do for damage control?

Leather can contract and expand so I don't think it's a huge problem... I just have to deal with the smell for a lil bit i guess.

Wow. You could try using a a vacuum to see if it sucks up any water. Other then that. You might need to let the seat dry first.

The leather isn't the problem; it's the water soaked into the foam. You may need to have leather seat cover removed to properly air/vacuum dry the foam. Perhaps removing the seat and putting in the sun may help dry and odour removal.
