ALright here's the deal...Just like everyone on this site you want to keep your Stang at its tip top shape. I have a brand new Mustang the first i've ever had and i LOVE it. I have black leather seats. I want to keep those seats looking perfect and dont want them getting messed up. What can i do to protect them? are there certian things i can put on them?
Please all recomendations appreciated.

The best thing is to use a good leather conditioner on a regular basis. Meguair's make a good one and so does Turtle Wax.

i hate armor all products but their leather care i love.  it conditions it and leaves a nice protective coating on the leather. i would also go with window tints and park it out of the sun whenever possible

In the end, you are gonna want racing seats once it start cracking and fading...which is inevitable. I personally used meguair's

I have used the Meguires wipes and the lube that comes in a bottle.  THey seemed alright, but I really like Zaino's Z10.  I just tried it for the first time yesterday. 

In the end though they do end up fading and getting crackly and wrinkly.  Nothing last forever....but taking good care of it should help them last as long as possible!

I went yesterday to meguiars training class at the headquarters.  Taught us evrything we need from interior to exterior and techniques.  They also have a forums that will discuss any question you have, which will have already been asked.  Check it out and the moderator and experts name is Mike Phillips.  Amazing person with a wealth of knowledge.

to keep them perfect just get covers.

If you'd actually like to feel them then the best thing is to never bring food or beverages (other than water) into the car.
Plus a good interior spray once in a while. Don't waste too much money on leather cleaner. Only the center part that you sit on is real leather.
