How do you care for your MINI? (Share your favorite products here)

With these fancy, fickle machines, there's a lot of TLC that needs to go into their maintenance. Everyone has their own favorite products and tools for keeping their baby in pristine condition, so let's discuss them here.

Selfishly, I'm waiting for my baby to arrive and I'm looking for the best products to stock my shelves in preparation for its caretaking.

I can think of a few categories of products:
  • Upholstery
  • Interior surfaces
  • Windows
  • Carpeting
  • Body
  • Fuel
  • Engine
For upholstery, specifically leather, I've always liked using Leather Honey for cleaning and conditioning. It's about $20 for an 8oz bottle of each and it restores leather like nothing else, plus it's easy to wipe away and doesn't leave any unpleasantness on your seats.

I'd like to hear about care products for the other interior surfaces (dash, steering wheel, vents and other fiddly bits. Share your suggestions on any of the categories above (or suggest more!)
