just look at all that spare change you have!! I did this exact same thing to my 1998, carpets and plastic panels out - money everywhere. Wasn't quite a fungus'd up as yours. Even have the original owners manual too. Wife took the carpet and worked on it for a few hours.

I checked all the seams, cracks, welds, cleaned everything up with a vacuum, hand polish wax to protect the metal. (this is the inside bare metal). Then i went for the outside paint with soap and wax - not to forget the door jamb areas.

She used a chlorine bleach solution on the carpet mats which cleaned them but changed the color as well.

Get in the dash - you want to clean that area good - free of any fungus or mold. Last thing you need is a AC unit blowing cold air full or fungus and mold spores at your face. Try lysol or some anti bacterial spray that doesn't hurt the plastic.

I cleaned all of my glass inside and out - paint - interior trim, carpets, seats, and put it all back. Looks like a nice little car - if I can keep these crazy Florida drivers off the body panels.

lol $75. I say that is because you live in Canada. During my metro hunt Canadians sold for 1/3 less the cost than down here in the states.
