pretty much just a re-state of what Loi said, but:
Interior - 303 Aerospace
Leather - Lexol (pH as well as conditioner)
Pads - I've got 2 of every color just in case I need them but black/white/blue are most used
Shampoo - Chemical Guys Wash n' Gloss
Polish - Blackfire Gloss Enhancing Polish and Blackfire Finishing Polish w/ Minzerna

LC hydro tech pads seem to be working well for me. You should only need the tangerine (as stated above) unless your car's gone to hell.
Leather, I like Zaino's z10, but leather master is supposed to be good as well.
Interior, 303 (smells like crap) or Einszett Cockpit (not nearly as bad as 303).
Shampoo, you may be better off using CWC rather than CWG, as too much of the CWG will strip your sealant/wax when washing.
Polish, PO85RD for me. You shouldn't need more than that unless the paint is really bad.
QD, I like FK425

What's CWC and CWG? For sealant I still have a lot of Zaino Z2 and Z-AIO left, they've been working great for me and you can layer them too.
I desperately need some good conditioner/cleaner for leather. I'll looking into Lexol and Z10.

CWG is this stuff Danny : Chemical Guys Citrus Wash & Gloss - 16 oz | Detailed Image
it's an AWESOME wash, you can dilute it for just washing or use it for stripping wax/sealants for the full detail
And if you need something to clean and condition the leather check out these two (the lexol):
Lexol pH Leather Cleaner - 16.9 oz | Detailed Image
Lexol Leather Conditioner - 16.9 oz | Detailed Image
Those work GREAT at cleaning and conditioning the leather

For pads, I used orange on my car, 2 passes with Menzerna intensive, then 1 pass with Menzerna final finish.
I tried the CG citrus wash and gloss, works very well. Very happy with it. Used it with sheep skin wash mitt, with thumb. Also very good. Much better than the microfiber mitt I used to use.

My $0.02:
Interior trim - Surf City Dash Away - great for cleaning dash, seats and carpet, and Meg's Quik Interior Detailer (no greasy protectant)
Leather - Leatherique Pristine Clean - no conditioner necessary on coated leather
Polishing pads - I like to have at least two of each
Bugs: Surf City Road Trip Grime Destroyer. This is the only product I've ever found that will allow old bugs to just wipe off after about 30 seconds.
Shampoo - Zaino or Surf City Pacific Blue
Quick detailer- Zaino Z-6, Z-8. Surprisingly, Mother's Showtime works really well, too.
Polish- Poorboys (old school), ZPC if swirling is minor
Wheels - Eagle One A2Z to clean wheels, tires and wells. Seal wheel faces afterwards with Zaino Clear Seal, and protect tires with Optimum Opti-Bond Tire Gel (AMAZING stuff - water based but lasts and looks great)
Sealant: Zaino ZAIO, Z-2/Z-5, sometimes Klasse AIO with a carnauba (Souveran), sometimes other sealants/waxes
Windows: Surf City window cleaner, Stoner's, or whatever. I'm not loyal to window cleaner brands - they're all quite similar IMO.
Exterior plastic trim: I use Autoglym's trim restorer as well as Black Wow for exterior trim - not necessary on the G, but works great on my wife's truck.
I also use a magic eraser from time to time to clean a really nasty steering wheel, scuffs on a seatback, etc.
