And you likely need to remove the rear seat and door sill trims to be able to get under the carpet and fully dry it. The molded foam under the carpet holds moisture like a chamois sponge. You can think you got it 100% dry from the top and it will still have loads of water underneath it that will mold and smell horrible.

No, it would be #1 here. It is the grey foam panel that closes off the inside of the door that you see when you pull the door panel off. What usually happens is when someone who doesn't know better changes a window regulator they don't properly seal it back on. That barrier is more important than people think

That link didn't work right, but from the sound of it I'd say yeah.
