Have you got a sunroof ???

Green oxidised deposits are from the copper in the wiring as evidenced by your connector in the pic..

No sunroof

Definitely copper corrosion deposits. Thinking outside of the box, I wonder is water is leaching down one of the cables, and then being dropped on the carpet?

I'd suggest that it's had the forum Carol Kirkwood fan club in there, complete with their Rheumatism Copper bracelets on. It looks like a few members would like to splash out on a new dress for her..
