Take out what you can remove and put them in the washing machine. Use Pantene as the detergent. The wee Bissell w/ Pantene for the rugs.
I use my girl's Pantene to clean everything. That stuff is amazing-it will absolutely kick any stain's ass. She uses the kind for "Normal Hair". Try it.

i tihnk the washing machine technique is probably hands down the most effective, and aditives in the washers would seem to make it work better. just havent seen any kinda refults from it yet

I used the washing machine on some B13 seat covers last and it worked great. I haven't gotten around to putting those ones back together yet though lol.

whats the turn around on doing it that way? how long does it normally take you to remove the seat covers and all that?

It takes about an hour to remove the cover b/c of all the hog rings. Part of the reason I've procrastinated about putting them back together is I'm not sure if I want to use hog rings, or use zip ties like some other people have done.

Sweet guys all the ideas sound great Im gonna try the washing machine technique first..Ive done a few upholstreys that involved hog rings and stretchin new upholstrey on so that should be pretty easy for me. As for the carpets I guess I can try some dollar store products. Hell like you said whats a dollar!! Thanks guys

no prob, you should do a before and after and then let us know what product worked best for the carpet that would be cool.

I have leather in both my cars.

Anyway, for the dash/Vinyl: Armor All wipes
Windows: Invisible Glass in the foam can
Leather: Maguires Leather wipes
Carpet: Vacuum and beat the piss out of the mats.

I like the steam clean idea. If I had fabric seats, I'd consider doing that. Same with a really dirty carpet. Although, you have to remove the seats and center console to really get all the carpet.
