I have found the best method for cleaning mats and carpet is this:
1. Small bottle of carpet cleaner/shampoo.
2. 2 Hand sized scrub brushes with stiff bristles
3. 2 Plastic buckets
4. Several white cotton drying towels
5. Elbow grease
Mix a small amount of the carpet cleaner (you do not want the solution to sudsy) with very hot water from the sink in your bucket. Dip the brush in the solution and work the carpet over one area at a time. For example, driver's side, passenger's side, etc. Before an area dries completely, go back over it with the second clean brush and a bucket of clean cold water. If your carpet is very dirty you may want to change out the hot soap and clean rinse water half way through.
Next take one of the white cotton towels and wipe the carpet down. This soaks up the excess water and helps the carpet dry quicker. Leave the doors or at least the windows open overnight until the carpets are completely dry.
Note: For stains- spray a stain remover on the spot and let it soak about ten minutes before you do the carpet cleaning method above.
Your carpets will look good as new.
