Default Question about drying products

well, my interior is very "wet" and you can smell the nice mildew smell. is there a product out there that takes moisture out of the air? ive seen something similar but it is basically a bunch of small pebbles that absorb moisture then turn into water in a tray below, i think the water becomes acidic.

how about a dehumidifier? this would only work in a garage and not outside...

well my car has a fatty leak on either side of where the water draisn into the drough below the windshield and when it draisn out the sides it leaks into the interior and so my car gets really humid in there with a car cover on. reason why i need something to dry it out is cuz i have nice expensive stereo in there and i would hate to see it ruin my amp or subs. the deck is a p.o.s so i couldnt care less about that.

Fix the leak first.

Damp Rid works...but not on aquariums.
