Vinyl cleaner
I am trying to clean the inside of my 76. I have washed all the parts with dawn but cannot get some areas clean of a sticky residue. I know that vinyl can leach out if that’s the proper term. Any thoughts greatly appreciated. Thanks

I am partial to 303 products. Google 303 vinyl cleaner and take a look.

If oil-based "protectants" have been used on the interior parts (can you say, ArmorAll 
), the goo is likely deteriorating plastic. You may have to attempt cleaning it with some kind of solvent. You might try using some hand cleaner first.
If you can get the goo off, use only polymer protectants on plastic/rubber/leather pieces you want to protect. Nu-Vinyl, Meguiar's protectant for plastics, 303, etc will all do a good job.

I cleaned my original seats and trip with Simple green before either re painting (staining) or treating with protectant ect.
Got rid of 40+ years off crud, oils etc etc.
