At some point with the previous owner, my Lance had the typical brake reservoir leak which drips down the hose and into the foam mat on the cabin side of the firewall. It and the floor mats were pretty soaked with old 5606 which absolutely reeks when the cabin warms up. I replaced the mats and cleaned the base of the firewall mat as best I could with alcohol and the smell is 99% gone. But there's still a bit lingering as I can't completely clean the firewall mat.
How hard is it to replace one of these, and where can they be bought? Really the smell is quite faint now so if it's a serious task to replace I will just leave it alone. But if it's reasonable it would be a good winter project. This is the black mat I'm talking about:
