Me and my wife in the middle of seriously cleaning the interior on the yukon. We breaked for lunch, here are some pics.
We bought this rig back in june and are the 3rd owners. A couple of soccer mom/ drunk party girls must have owned before because there was spilt and dried coke EVERYWHERE like around all the seat bolts.

I know this is off subject, but what are the details on the red truck in pic. Looks alot better than any Tahoe interior to me. Is it a 68-70 chevy?

WOW, that is "hella" interior cleaning! From the looks of it, it's gonna be a new truck after you get done with it.

also we got the yukon all put back together last night about 7:30 and no left over parts and everything still works.
Didn't get the carpet 100% stain free but it sure is Super clean now, even feels clean.
Pressure washed both sections of carpet 2 times with simple green, the first time washed the water was dark brown......

Any before and after pictures?

Also, do you have any form or a write up as to how you removed everything?

No I did not take any step by step pics for removal. There is nothing hidden or hard to reach, hardest part is unbolting and unplugging front seats and lifting them out. (those are some heavy bitches if they are power everything)

unbolt all seats (11MM and 15 MM for front captain seats)(19MM or 20MM for 2nd row captain seats)

unhook 3rd row seat (if equipped)

there are 2 bolts for center console that bolt it to the bottom part of dash
they are located behind power ports trim piece under HVAC controls

after you unbolt that everything thing else just snaps or clips into place

now keep in mind this is a yukon if you attempt to do this on a denali or escalade I'm sure there will be a few more trim pieces to unhook and def a few more wires for 2nd row like if you have heated cooled seats. That is just from me looking around on forum I have never worked on a denali or esky.

I don't have any before pics it but if you can imagine brown carpet everywhere the floor mats didn't cover and all along the edge of carpet at threshold trim in all 4 doors

i can take a few after pics when I get home later on though

I did that on my '00 suburban after I bought it. The wife's observation: "I didn't know a car could come apart that far once it's built"...Nice work.

I did that to the previous SUV we got...this one was already damn clean so luckily we didnt have to do that, but nothing like the feel of freshly pressure washed carpet. :)

on a car i bought several years ago i did the same thing and wound up getting a spray can of carpet dye to treat the stains after it was cleaned and it made it look new again.

for those of you with cloth seats, on the car i just referred to, i even unzipped the covers and pulled them all off and put them in the washing machine on hand wash cycle and air dried them. looked brand new. the PO of that car had spilled coke in the seat and no matter how hard you cleaned it just kept coming back. problem solved after that.
