Wash, dry, claybar, 1 coat of collinite #845, then a coat (or two) of #915...
Protects for months & comes out looking something like this: http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y14...0/PICT0080.jpg

As far as the interior, clean glass 1st using stoner invisible glass, then wet/wring out a microfiber cloth with the hottest water you can get, use this to clean the plastic interior surfaces. I'll never understand the whole glazed/slimey-interior-shine crowd.
