Sandy, speaking from experience, you can drive your car wearing just a parka. Nothing will get harmed in the interior. I have not only driven in pouring rain but also in a hail storm in Colorado. I travel alone so I can use my tonue cover over half the interior if I know bad weather is coming. When raining, just keep moving. You simply can't hurt the car. I've had the footwells filled with water. Sponge it up and point a fan on it. No damage.
You will have to deal with Hillbank in LA for your replacement parts. 2 females eh? And you're complaining?
