After my last post, and before heading to the annual meet, I attacked both the drivers seat and the plastic trim around the bottom of the door. I used a product called 'Interior Wizard' by a local company called 'Orchard Autocare', and after about two hours of scrubbing I was satisfied with the result. It isn't 100% clean, but a massive difference visually. Even comparing the drivers door plastic trim to that of the rear door (which doesn't see much traffic), there is a big difference. Now I'm back, I just have to repeat the process on the other seats and trim.

The headlining will still be an issue though, but while at A8parts on Sunday, I bought a few parts, including a solar sunroof lining (in cream), so may look at trying to clean that.
