Default My cockpit stinks!

Put it on the roof of your car rightside up, dump about 5 gallons of
water and some biodegradable soap in it, put the spray cover over the
cockpit, and drive it around for a week or so*. Then go to a carwash,
dump it out, and rinse it with the high-pressure spray (don't blow
your padding and bracing off).

If that fails, put a car freshener inside. :-)

*Not TOO much water....it will affect your car's handling in corners
and braking. Experiment first.
