No need to steam alcantara seats.
Ttry get hold of some upholstery cleaner from an upholstery shop and give them a wipe down with a microfibre cloth every 2 weeks (I use one to apply and one to go over it) and give them a wipe down. Then give them a hit with the vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment to 're-plush' the alcantara; and also to get rid of the 'crap' (eg sounds disgusting but dead skin, dust, pollutants from air when you drive with your windows down etc etc) that builds up on them every day and you should be fine

yeah i was thinking of getting upholstery shit to give them a proper clean . their still in good condition but i wanna act on them early before stains become .. permanently stained !
thanks for the advice , i vacuum them every week to try stop dust build up .
only thing that kills it the most is .
the rain .

Yeh but don't get that foaming shit rubbish for alcantara I don't think the condition of them would be that bad! Plus I've seen a guy use that one on his.. think it was a VW Jetta or something... and he totally f*cked up the alcantara and the company wouldn't reimburse him because it said on the pack to try in a small area first before applying to seats incase alcantara went funny. Ouch.
Haha, keep your windows shut! LOL.
Funny because I hate driving with my windows up...even when it is raining! I just leave the back ones open a touch if it's not too bad hehe
Too hot to do too much.. fitted EG6 plastic headlights but got carried away detailing the chassis with all the front end apart.
Surprised how much lighter the plastc were versus oem glass lights but i forgot to weigh the eg6 lights before i put them on..and with the H4H bulbs MUCH better than the stock lights.
Slapped on some rice, PWJDM fender bolts, battery tie, tow ring, shift boot and new bolts for my dizzy so it doesnt fall out again lol.
