Default buy a good cleaner and conditioner spray

the brand is up for debate. I use Lexol but some don't like it. I don't use a lot when I'm cleaning my seats so it doesn't leave a greasy residue like some complain about.

Default I'd also recommend Lexol... use both the cleaner and conditioner.... (more)

You only need to clean the seats a couple times a year, and always, ALWAYS condition after you clean. Just follow the directions on the bottle. Its really easy. You can also search the forum for other input, I think theres a lot from Dolphindaddy, who is now muranodaddy. Congrats on the car!

Default Get some Leather Vital. It is a light creme used to protect and condition the leather.

It keeps the leather nice and soft. I can be purchased from detailers paradise which is a forum sponser.

Default Zaino Bros. Z-10 Leather in a Bottle ...

Leaves leather softer than anything else I have ever used and makes the car smell like new. Used other products, including Audi's (oily residue), but nothing else compares.
