It's not worth replacing the interior because 3-4 years may not be enough time to accumulate to represent a health concern. The rest may just be cosmetic.

It will cost a lot of labour if you paid someone to do it. If you're mechanically inclined you can do it yourself, but from his post it sounds like he'll struggle and most likely break something (no disrespect).

I think the car still has some value left in it, provided his kids haven't completely wrecked the interior. It may be better to sell it now and get a cheaper car than to hang on to it for a few more years, then get another car after that.
