    We have the gray and burgundy interior with light gray upholstery. Dust shows quickly on the dashboard and on the black covers over the cup holders and CD player. I am wondering if anyone has found an anti-static cleaner that is safe for the finishes or do I just dust every day? Seems like everything shows up on this material and it's hard to keep it looking great.

    Also, has anybody ever Scotchguarded the upholstery themselves?

    I keep Swiffer dry cloths in the console & usually dust 1-2 times a week. Lately I've have more pollen than dust on and in my car. I'm sort of a clean freak so constantly dusting doesn't bother me. :)

    Exact fit dash cover (secured by velcro), tight fit seat covers; silicon spray & wipe for plastic on doors, rubber gaskets around doors, and threshholds. Looks great, stays clean. Only the MFD shows dust. Clear plastic exact fit cover over rear luggage area. Heat shields for all windows. Car stays clean-looking.
