On the leather use mcguires, they make pretty good leather care products. If your looking for a real good leather cleaner look into wolfgang car care products, its a product from germany and its amazing it will take cracked leather and make it new again.

Armor All.......not on my lawnmower!

I either use Zymol leather conditioner and cleaner or
Meguiar's leather cleaner/conditioner because it's a
one step process and easy. I also use it on the dash
and door panels. Armor All will end up on the inside
of your glass when it evaporates.....I don't use it for
anything including tires......it was great stuff in the
'60s but this is the 21st century!

what i have found to be the best is a microfiber towl and some warm water - ive tried armor all....too greasy, and meguiar i think is just to hard to use, it doesnt slide well on the leather and i dunno.....just didnt like it.

^+1 After the wash, I use the microfiber towel that was used for the drying and wipe down the interior. It's not enough water that'll do damage to the leather but it's really good to wipe off the dirt and dust. I don't use any kind of leather treatment. Tinting the windows help out a lot.

i alternate using 303 and meguiars... 303 does a great job conditioning and protecting, meguiars adds that shine i love and it smells amazing =D
everyone (girls included) always ask me if my cars new!!!)

i like to keep my interior lookin great cuz its what i see. but i keep the outside for everyone else
