So let me get this straight. ...
303 Aerospace Protectant are good for: Convertible Top, S2000 seats, dashboard, door panels and the whole interiors beside carpet
Meguiar Gold Class Rich Leather are good for: S2000 seats, and how about the door panels?
Thank You guys for asking too many questions

Mequiars Gold Class Rich Leather is good for all Leather.
If I remember correctly, all the leather pieces are the:
S2000 seats,
Steering wheel rim,
Shift boot,
Door cards,
Leather piece wrapping the side of the center console and going to the back behind the seat.
I actually think some of those pieces are probably fake leather, but they feel and look somewhat like leather that I use Leather conditioner/cleaner on it.
Mavm86, why you don't use leather wipes on vinyl and vice versa is obvious. The company's techs formulated each product for a specific item. Leather wipes are made to keep leather moisturized, pliable and protected. While vinyl products for the most part keep damaging UV rays away sort of like vinyl sunscreen.
Hope this helps some.

Have you tried the RaggTopp on the vinyl interior? I would assume it should work similarly to 303 (nothing "magical" about the softtop vs other vinyl, right?)... I have a bottle of RaggTopp, so wondering if I need 303 as well for inside?

Any particular reason why you shouldn't use the Meguiar's leather wipes on the vinyl and plastic?
Meguiar's Leather spray contains Aloe and other additives that are meant to be absorbed. Vinyl does not absorb those oils and can not benefit from that treatment.
Just read the label and use the right product.

Only reason I asked is sometimes when I'm done my seats, door panels, shift boot, etc with the wipes I'll give the dash a quick wipe down with one. I just wanted to make sure that it wasn't going to damage the material.

I've used Armor All on my S dash and previous cars. I've never had any cracking problems, yellow build up, or anything, and my dash is mint. And I actually like the wet/greasy look, as long as it's not too much.

Yes, Meguiar's Leather Protectant is safe to use on the dashboard and other vinyl items. This has been mentioned by Mike Phillips over at MOL on a couple of different occasions. But I personally would stick with a dedicated vinyl protectant for vinyl items.
