Leather Restoration?

So the driver seat isn't looking too good. This is what it looks like..


Is there anything I can do to make this look better for not too much money?

+1 - I thought the same exact thing! I'm going to try what this link says though. I wonder if it actually works? Seems too simple to be true...

Yoshi, it is never a waste of money to clean and protect you leather. It should be done every few months to replenish the essential oils in the leather to keep them from cracking and premature wear.
