    Hey guys got an 05 with leather and was wondering what conditioner you use on the leather. Right now I use armor all wipes to clean them but have not used any oil on them. Whats a good product to use

    My favorite, because I like the name,the packaging, the smell,the slipperiness,
    the way it conditions the leather and it doesn't cost a butt-load of greenbacks.
    Some good stuff on a dime even though only one of many alternatives. Right now
    I'm using Meguiars Gold class leather conditioner because I was in O'reillys and thought I'ld give it a whirl.
    Still prefer Mothers, you really can't go wrong with any of their products.

    If you're willing to spend a bit more, SmartWax SmartLeather and Zaino Z10 are excellent products. Lexol, like most more commercial products, still has almost a lanolin type substance that can form a barrier which doesn't allow the leather to breath as well. Over time, this can dry out the leather prematurely. I still like it a lot for something under $10/bottle, but if you want to preserve the leather as long as possible, you're better off with the other 2 products I mentioned.

    Lexol is supposed to be a good product....How does it smell?
    I could never pull the trigger on it because of the 70s earth tone packaging

    You're going to get mixed reviews on the smell. Personally, I like it. It's kinda' like new leather, but not quite.
