I agree Lillee, my old felt was just a rust production product because water got under it. I know you need to work out why water is getting in but if it does I want to be able to see it to sort it out. I am thinking of using some Velcro adhesive tabs to fix underlay to floor and walls rather than glue the whole thing down. That way I can get it out if water does get in. Not sure if it would work but I am going to try it.
I wouldn't ever glue anything to the floor. Even if it is not "sponge like" the water would still be trapped under there.
It's always worth checking carpets are not damp. Even a perfectly leak free car will get wet carpets from driving rain when the door opens or soaking wet boots/shoes.
The engine side firewall sound mat makes a big difference esp if Centre speedo as there is a hole there where speedo us. Also protects back of speedo from dust and water.
