A 'friend' played a trick on me by hiding two eggs in a small container in my trunk. Eggs broke, we had some hot weather and now my entire car reeks. I've cleaned the trunk, power washed the rubber mat (thank god I bought that), but I can't get the smell out if the car itself. Does anyone have any tips?

Not sure how good it will help, but I personally would start with spraying white vinegar over every surface and let it completely dry. If possible, use a portable carpet cleaner to wet clean any fabric / carpet surfaces. If you only have a vacuum, sprinkle bi-carb soda over the carpets and fabric seats, leave for 30, vacuum up. https://www.thespruce.com/frugal-air-freshener-1388728#:\~:text=To%20freshen%20carpet%2C%20shoes%2C%20trash,use%20any%20clean%20spray%20bottle.
