Well I would throw a match into the trunk... but thats just me. I used scented baking powder to get rid of a smell in my car and that worked fine.

go to Pet Value and get a bottle of NOKOUT spray. This neutralizes pretty much any odours. My GF's car had a nasty mold smell in it. I took it to a detail shop and they made it ing worse, so I did some research and found out about this odour neutralizer and the really works. I sprayed it on the carpets in the front and let it soak in and dry up. The mold smell completely disappeared after a day or two.

The car will smell like clean bleached laundry for while (depending on how much of the stuff you use). I used the entire spray bottle on the front carpets. It's about $12 for a spray bottle.
