Removing the seats and wet-vaccing them is effective if you can go this route; otherwise, it depends on how dirty they are. If they're not too bad, you can get effective results from various cleaners

go to sainsburys and look out for something called active naturals its a pale green in the toiletries section if you get some white dish clothes spray a little on the patch rub in any motion just keep rubing for about 5 mins this works with carpet the same! afetr rubbing for a while leave for 20-30 mins for it to dry it will be as god as new!!

I took my last set apart and stuck them in the washing machine. But what I found was really good at getting the stains off was petrol. They came up MINT.
