Default Detailing inside the Gt

I did some searching but not sure still what to use. The pony has leather seats so I am wondering what to use on them and then what to use on the dash & the aluminum dash panel. Any help is appreciated!!!

For the seating surfaces, and depending on how dirty the leather is, use either a one-step Leather Care product or a Two-Step product pair of Leather Cleaner and Leather Conditioner. Also address the steering wheel rim while you're at it.

The sides, back and other "leather" surfaces elsewhere (except for the steering wheel rim) are likely leather-look vinyl, and can be cleaned with a general purpose upholstery cleaner (which can also be used on the dash vinyl).

For dressing the vinyl finishes and the padded dash, use a vinyl protectant, but on the dash be sure to buff well with a cotton terry towel to minimze any possible reflection.

For the gauge trim, I'd try a quality glass cleaner that's safe for window tint (meaning, without ammonia - like Mothers) or even a light instant detailer to bring some shine (again, something like Mothers).

When i first got my gt i was a "wipe" guy i liked to use the wipes but they left the interior way too greasy for me and they left lit ... so i got the meguiars natural shine it works great on the black surfaces idk what your interior is though but i like it on the black it shines it and doesnt leave greasy residue... but for the seats i use the same as above and i use invisible glass cleaner for my gauges but i spray it on the cloth not directly on because that will cause it to splatter.

The natural shine stuff is also great for the black trim around the doors and rear views which is notorious for fading... but i usually detail the inside every other time i was my car but i vacuum everytime and theres never anything junked up or in there ... but i think its harder to detail the inside than the outside bc of all the little nooks
