Have another fav feature. I have never has a car with ventilated/cooled seats. After having to spend some time in Phoenix this summer, especially today at 117 F, I now know why luxury cars have them.

Love the vented leathers. Word of warning, though: don't use saddle soap to clean the leather; just don't. Fiebing's stuff works great, but the dang holes get mildly plugged with the soap. Argghghgh! (Oops. Yeah, well. Live and learn. Clearly, my first vented leather seats. :o)

Nope, saddle soap isn't the best for these seats. Lexol cleaner/conditioner works great and won't clog the holes. Wonder how you learned about saddle soap :D
Fiebing's saddle soap is a wonder. Just the devil's own self-induced predicament, if attempting to use on perforated leather seats. Though, I did find an entirely new use for small finishing nails. Very useful, for such situations. Poke ... poke ... poke ..., even three days later, to get the ones I missed the first time around. |
As they say, no good deed goes unpunished. At least you were able to have an up close and personal experience with your car seats ;)

The ludicrous thing is, I practically had to reach over the bottle of Lexol to get to the can of Fiebing's. Go figure. Murphy was watching, that day, and chuckling the rest of the week. |
Something else that is excellent for dry leather is Leather Honey. Goes on as a thick, honey-like liquid that is left on overnight so it is absorbed into the leather, then wiped off. Best if car can "heat up" inside overnight, so leave windows up or park it outside during the day. Not nearly as thick as saddle soap so won't clog holes or pores in the leather.
