Part 3: Time to do some cleaning
Finished up cleaning the interior this past Sunday.
Needless to say, it was filthy...
I tackled the dashboard and interior plastic parts first. Used Mr. Clean Magic Eraser and a little bit of dish soap.
This is just from the dashboard:
Then cleaned the seats using Lexol cleaner and Lexol conditioner, PC7424 with a soft brush attachment and a scrubbing pad:
Used some heavy-duty carpet cleaner and a carpet brush on the Porter cable to clean up the front floor mats
Then finally followed up by putting some shine back into plastic pieces with Meguiar's Natural Shine Protectant (gives it a nice shine, without greasiness):

I didn't take any 'after' shots of mats themselves...kinda forgot, but they can be seen in later pics. They cleaned up a lot, but not perfect.
I got the brush attachments from AutoGeek:
