So, for a while now I had been looking at getting a drill brush for interiors. After looking all over the net for the best and most cost effective brush I found that most were anywhere from $16-$30 PER BRUSH. Thinking there was no way I would pay that much for one brush I came across this video on youtube.

after watching this I immediately went to Walmart and found a brush that would perfect. It even had a pre drilled hole already. I found those dishwashing brushes with a little rubber pump that has a hole where the soap is dispensed. The brush was less than $3 and I had all the hardware. Came home and put it together in about 5 minutes. Ive been using this brush for numerous interiors and it works great. No problems, brush is not too rough and a great value. I highly recommend this to everyone looking to save a few bucks and still getting the product they need. Not to mention the brush I use is very similar to the one in the video and you can get in the little corners much better then you would be able to with a 5" brush. Hope you guys find this helpful.

Great idea!! Just make sure you don't apply too much pressure with that bolt in the center...

Just gonna comment again and say that I tried this and it worked great, I had to do some modification but anyone with common sense can figure out a working solution.

What I do is go to goodwill and buy any shoe brushes I can find (comes down to $2 or $3 per brush) and cut them in thirds, because I found when using the whole thing there's a good possibility of getting hurt or breaking something on the interior. They don't last forever though and sometimes will shed but it's still way cheaper than buying a dedicated drillb rush for upholstery and interiors and I have to end with a vacuuming anyways so shedding isn't much of an issue.
