I love amazon and I want to give them some business.

If you see some good prices on stuff link it up!!

Yet ANOTHER thread that should be in the detailing portion of CL.

Anyways... OP, these are what I personally use for my interior.

Dash/Plastics - 303 Aerospace
Leather - Leatherique (Rejuvenator Oil and Prestine Clean)
Glass - Stoner's Invisible Glass (Tint Safe)
Carpets - Meguiars All Purpose D101 (Green) with a Little Green Bissel
For small nooks 'n crannies, I like to use compressed air to blow out any crud.

So you plan on neglecting your leather since it's a "cheap" Lexus. Last time I looked ~35k for a car isn't "CHEAP". The leather in your IS needs to be nourished and protected. My '06 was poorly kept and damaged by the Houston heat. It was cardboard dry and had deep creases. The Leatherique (after a few uses) helped turn the leather back around. Leather is something that needs to be conditioned and kept clean CONSTANTLY.
