    How do you guys clean the interior, specifically the inside door panel where all that mesh is for the speakers and such. When I went offroading a bunch of dirt got on it

    I just use a damp, warm, lightly soapy clean micro fiber cloth. Then use a reg damp cloth. If you have caked on crap (steering wheel grime) use warm soapy water & a soft scrub brush, then rinse.
