Did anyone have a roadster with the baseball interior long enough to notice a difference?

Default The color and character will change a bit over time, much like...
Well, like a baseball glove. I drive with the top down pretty much daily, but park with the top up. The seats still look good after almost 2 years.

I've had mine 26 months. No noticeable fade. I also condition my leather every 3 months.

Yes UV will fade just about anything. Keep the seats covered when not driving. You can use 303 protectant also it has a SPF 40 sunscreen.
