Seat surfaces and steering wheel are leather... leather cleaner and conditioner are best for them. Try Mothers, or Meguiars.

Everything else is vinyl I believe. NuVinyl gives a pretty good shine, but I've found that you have to try different products to suit your taste and eye.

Trust me you DO NOT want shine on top of dash !! the glare you get is very distracting !!
there are several NO SHINE products on the market take your pick. **

303 Aerospace Protectant is a very good product. Spray on a rag and wipe down the door panels and dash. It gets rid of the white residue and doesn't give a wet look and doesn't feel slippery.

Sold at most boat shops.

You can also order it from Autogeek, one of our forum vendors.

I treat the "leather" with Meguiar's gold class wipes. Works great and smells nice. I usually leave the dash alone, since I constantly have to wipe the dust off of it anyway. Maybe armor all once in a blue moon just to keep it looking new.

Another vote for 303 Aerospace. A bit of a shine but not an offensive amount of glare and it makes dusting or wiping down with a damp towel easy.

303 Protectant is the best I have ever found for this. I was just outside going my nephews 4Runner interior with it and he was amazed. I buy it by the gallon from Autogeek and use it on several things
