Best way to clean plastics?

i was wondering about how to do this, specifically the snorkel and ducting from my air cleaner.

aside from good ol scrubbing i was thinking

-letting them soak in hot water
-letting them soak in hot water with degreaser
-soaking in hot water with some car wash soap.

any other ideas?

Re: Best way to clean plastics?

I've always been a fan of Simple Green for all things underhood. Cleans most anything without damaging it. My other choice for plastic would be warm water and dish soap.
