welcome! I use DP interior protectant that I picked up on BOGO not too long ago. Works pretty well with only a slight gloss and smells like a yellow laffy taffy. Megs quick interior detailer is a good, less expensive option too.

Re: Newb from South Louisiana
Hey Ronney! The only recommendation I have before doing doors or dashes in a BMW is to make sure the surface you are wiping product on is clean. My friend owns a M3 and at first glance the dash looked great, but if you take a slightly damp microfiber towel(just make sure its not dripping water ) and just pre wipe the surface, its amazing the grime one pass will pic up from hair, dust, dirt and contamination from having the windows down!
As for products, i don't really like the super glossy shine from products like ArmorAll, so i stick with something called 303 Aerospace Protectant. It comes in tiny spray bottles or wipes and has a calming scent which isnt overpowering, and adds UV protection as well!
By the way all the other products mentioned above are excellent too, im just biased because i fell in love with the 303 Protectant when used in my audi. (PS worked great on rubber door trim too)

Due to 303's matte finish and UV 40 protection I also apply 303 Aerospace Protectorant to my interior panels/dash; tires; underhood hoses; body cladding/plastic; and, since the "rubber seals" around and about the newer vehicles are no longer constituted of the rubber as we once knew it (now usually EPDM) and no longer need to be coated with a greasy protectorant, 303 AP is what a lot of the OEMs recommend--it cleans away any grease/grime and it contains no petroleum distillates.
When I'm out of 303 I will use Lexol's VinylX (claims UV60) on the interior but not on any of the EPDM. (by the way, EPDM=Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomar [whoopie ding dong!!])
