What tips do you guys have for cleaning in a 2017 around the shifter? The black glass stuff (idk how else to describe it) looks nice when its clean but everything Ive tried so far still leaves some sort of smudge/smear. Also, any advice for cleaning the nooks and crannies in the same area?
 
Tip- Some people complain that the leather on steering wheel and shift knob leather is "peeling". In my experience I thought the same...I thought wrong...it was caked on grease from hands over the years. Removed using degreaser. Leather looks newish again.
 
I use a lens cleaning cloth and a mini brush designed for an electric razor.
 
Use a all purpose type automotive cleaner. Dilute it down and use microfiber cloths and q tips. Use the cleaner sparingly.
