not sure what to use on the GSi tho, but always hoovered the inside out too & used window-lean on the windows

Soapy water, shampoo, and polish Haven't really got round to washing it properly yet, not long had the car. Used some backtoblack on my bumpers though because previous owner must have tried waxing it or something and totally ruined it. Looks quite nice after a bit of a rub though
