Get a dehumidifier ASAP.

Put it on the passengers seat, close the windows.

Dump out the water every hour or two. This WILL save your interior. My mom left the sunroof open all day once and it completely soaked the interior of her SUV. Couldn't even tell after the dehumidifier was done.

My friend tried to get through a submerged road thinking it wasn't that deep. It was deep enough to kill his motor and flood his interior. The dehumidifier saved the interior even days after this happened.

I wouldn't use a blow dryer. You're not going to get deep enough with that and you will end up with mildew smells.

A lot of people don't know about these, but they're staples in humid climates. Might be a little more difficult to track one down in LA but it will be worth it.
