Detailing the inside of my car tonight, putting 303 Aerospace Protectant on the plastic and leather stuff on the seats. Everything is looking clean and black and shiny so far.
Anyone know whether the outer ring portion of the steering wheel is plastic or leather? Than will help me apply the right spray/goop.
Same for the floppy material at the bases of stick and e-brake. Thanks!

Reason: Added question
Two votes for leather wheel and vinyl thingies. Thanks for your help, time to go back to the car! Biggest challenge is now convincing my three dogs and one I'm sitting that they're not allowed in the car while I'm working.

I wonder if leather cleaner and condition is a good idea for the steering wheel or just be realistic and put my griot's vinyl and rubber treatment on it. Why? I know it's a strange idea, but the surface of that leather is so synthetic, I dont think it matters.
I believe that the early wheels (02 and part of 03) were all vinyl, leather becoming available midway through the 03 model year. You mentioned your car's an 06 , so it may should be leather. As to the gear and e-brake boots, vinyl is stock, but there are OEM leather kits as well as several aftermarket leather kits available. Again it would depend on what you (or a prior owner) has done with the interior.
edit: Saw his sig was for an 06.
