Default Interior help

Guys my front of the interior of my 05 is disgusting. My center console cloth is greasy and the rubber around the cup holder has finally come up. My driver's seat is way stained and it's ripped from sliding in and out so frequently. I've been trying to sell (getting an fx4 model) but the main complaint I'm hearing is about the interior. Any suggestions on how to clean it up (without spending a shiz load of money)??

Check out blue choral upholstery cleaner. I use it on mine and it turns out great. However, you'll need to use a lot of applications of the product to get the stains out.

I just wish there was more we could do on that center console! I unfortunately bought it worn, or else it would be in almost flawless condition still because I have slight OCD! I've looked into seat covers.. but I don't want to look cheap and ghetto.

You can get it detailed!! A lot of places up here in Michigan will do it for like 50 or 60 dollars. There is some nice seat covers out there also.

post up some pics if you can. If its the center console maybe you can re trim it. Probably would be pretty easy to do yourself. I have done chairs for my wife, like dinning room chairs and they turned out perfect. With just some new fabric, glue and a staple gun.

I had a 96 T-100 and the seats and fold down arm rest were a mess. A local guy did everything for me for $400. Maybe worth your time to look around. that was with new fabric and some foam and vinyl on the sides and back, plus the head rests.
Just a thought. Maybe they can do varying degrees of what you want. Its always worth a phone call or to stop in.

Holy crap! I have seen 20 yr old vehicles look better than that inside. Maybe it was used as a work truck?
