Stained Seats
So yeah, I was one of those people BLESSED with having cream colored seats..(I hate em >.<) Well, they are stained and they look DISGUSTING. I was wondering if anyone had any seacrets on how to fix this, because I don't feel like paying someone $60 to do it :-/

Ouch, cream cloth too... I would try either some carpet shampoo or maybe woolite and a brush?

I had the grey cloth, and they stained like crazy, too.
At first I tried the expensive cleaning at the stealership, and that didn't work. I ended up paying $1500 to have them reupholstered. I hope you find a better way!

The stinker of it all is you really can't spot clean 'em. It makes the situation worse.
I'll be reuphlstering Cup's seats- hopefully early next year.

Try a bottle of VW's All-Purpose Cleaner (sorry, I don't have the part number handy) mixed to the correct concentration with distilled water. Remember, whatever cleaning technique or solution you use, you must use distilled water.
 Good luck!!!
