Anyway to clean tan seat belts?

I was just wondering if anyone has found a product that has been successful in cleaning them. Thanks for your help.

I have tried a variety of things. I have found that (oddly enough) WD-40 works well to remove grease stains from the seatbelt latch covers (the plastic where the buckle clicks in), but it requires use of your fingernails and another cleaner to remove the oily residue ( I just polish with Armor-All® after).
I also like the product "Orange Fantastik," purchased at Wal-Mart. Another product I have used is Ecosphere™ Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner, available on-line only (will post a link in new thread).

I got a portable steam cleaner, and I have used that to clean alot of things.... It should work fine on the seatbelts. You can usually get it at a local Target store..... Dont forget the cleaning soloution either.... The one I have is made by a company called Bissell, and they make the cleaning soloution too...... It works wonders on cloth interiors

I cleaned my entire interior, ceiling and all, with Oxi-Clean. Yeah it's that stuff from all the TV commercials with good ol' Billy Mays.
It worked really well, even on a stain from ketchup that had been smeared on that armrest for the back seat that goes to the trunk. The stain was on the back side of the armrest, so I didn't notice it for a good 6 months after I bought the car.
