Re: Started to clean the interior.

For the leather, a temporary solution would be a few applications of Mothers 'back to black'

Re: Started to clean the interior.

For the black bits like the dash and console 1Z Einszett Cockpit Premium Interior Cleaner is the bomb. Cockpit Premium and Sonax Dashboard Matte Cleaner are probably the only two cleaners you should ever need for the innards of the car.

Re: Started to clean the interior.

I knew I just saw it somewhere on here lol! When using a leather condition you really should be applying with your hands... Like rubbing it into the leather with your hands and fingers to get in all the little crevices. A detailers tip I was given years ago and makes a noticable difference compared to scrubbing with a rag or sponge.

Re: Started to clean the interior.

You should really think of swapping your complete interior for my 91 grey leather interior! Ha ha ha...Seriously I am in the process of swapping mine for flame red interior just like yours! Wish I tought about this matter when I bought my car back in 1998...

If you ever dream about getting a nice grey interior let me know LoL
