Don't forget your volume knob! I can see it's grimy/hairy in your picture. I thought it would be hard to clean until I recognized that the knob is smooth. So the goo can be scraped out towards the chrome end cap where you can grab it with some paper towels. It would be much easier if the knob would pull off so you could work on it. But I can't figure out how that knob comes off so I just cleaned it in place. Not too bad of a job compared to some of those OTHER buttons!!

Now don't forget the rear climate control panel and all 4 doors have PW and PL switches too. Just a lot of different surfaces to clean.
