well my center console got some tea spilt on it (couple months ago) and is pretty sticky, should i just use a toothbrush and water? or take it all apart and clean it with soap water and everything else i can find?

 

Depends how picky you are, how much you spilled and how hard it is to get everything outta there to clean it 100%.... Those are questions you must answer my friend.

Perhaps someone here can let you know how hard it is to remove all the pieces in question should you decide to go full tilt.

 

the leatherpart of the console where your are goes?
If that is it I just use a toothbrush and leather cleaner, best approach for me.

Or the cup holer area?
If so I would say just take it out, real easy. Replace it with the 03 ones with you have not yet do so, they are a lot better.

 

yeah i went and removed and shift plate and that was all i would really like to take apart the whole shifter assemble to make it look clean again, but i spent 1 hr cleaning my center console and dash. Looks damn good
