cleaning interior?

what is the best stuff to clean the suede looking material on the dash and doors??? It looks like it might be easy to really mess it up with the wrong kind of product,, Thanks.

My maual says to clean it with a sponge or cloth and warm water & very mild soap/detergent. Haven't tried it yet myself but I would like to clean up the driver-side arm rest in mine. I'd like to try some Oxy-clean stuff on it but am afraid of discoloration and have no place where I willing to risk testing it. Any brave souls out there who have?

You can tell the lack of craftsmanship by the wrinkles in the duct tape.

you could try it on the drivers side door, where it meets the dash (the part you can't see when the door is closed)- that's where i tested the Dry Clean wipes. pretty inconspicuous.
