Could use a little help....

Well having the tan cloth seats ive always been prone to stains and struggling to get them clean... they are finaly too dirty that i am never going to get them clean, but dont want to pay for leather at the moment... anyone know where i could find just the cloth front seat bottoms(parts u sit on)? Any other suggestions? i have heard some people using a steam cleaner, any input on that? or anyone have some extras lying around?

any help would be great, thanks guys

Check out the detailing section, lots of good info. Do a search on cleaning the seats. They can be cleaned, trust me I've done it.

I have done the search many times, and have tried just about every cleaner that has been recommended on here. the only thing i havn't tried that ive seen recommended is a steam cleaner. Being an 04 they are just to the point where i am not able to get them looking clean using just cleaners. So does anyone have any info about steam cleaning, or where to just get new cloth seat bottoms?

Thanks

I took a drive a few weeks ago with our new dog. Stoped at a convenience store for just a few minuets and when I opened the door I couldn't believe it, she had pucked on all four seats. Not just one,,,,,all four. So I flew back into the store and stated grabbing napkins like crazy to get most of it off the drivers seat and went straight home and got at least three wet towels and some dry ones. A roll of paper towel to to get the big stuff off. So I took the wet towels and started rubbing/scrubbing, brought out a hair dryer to help speed up things to see how it came out. I was surprised that it looked pretty decent but still had some stains. So I got a can of Blue Magic carpet stain remover and that got the rest of it. Took me about two freeking hours. That dog will never see the inside of my truck again. Sorry for the rant and long and boring post.
