    It's outstanding stuff. Search and you'll find some more info here, as well as a place to buy it that doesn't soak you on shipping like a Leatherique direct purchase.

    Awesome info, pics and links guys, thanks a ton for the feedback. I'll be doing this in the coming months, DIY and/or pics to come. I'll probably stay away from the steering wheel though, but I'm sure my driver & passenger seats will appreciate the love.

    Another consumer of theirs here. Very happy with it. Though I am no detailing expert.

    Looks like I'm going to be buying some Leatherique for my steering wheel and arm rest.

    It's not the car you drive, it's how you drive it.

    So the only way to protect it, is to eliminate touching it - drive with gloves on, OR get a decent steering wheel cover - that's what I did - of course make sure you clean AND DRY the wheel really well before putting it on. It makes the wheel a bit thicker and grippier, too, which i like, and while it may not be cosmetically 100% elegant, the feeling that I KNOW that my leather wheel remains in good shape makes me happy. If I was in a show-off situation I can always take the cover off easily. Not bad for $9 I think it looks pretty damn decent:
    (NOTE: the cover fits and sits perfectly and symmetrically on the wheel - the area at 8 or 9 o' clock looks a bit off because I accidentally rubbed against the cover and pushed it to the left - didn't notice it till i saw the pics)
    Which steering wheel cover is it and where did you get it?

    Johnrando: I just got a $9.00 Bell "inside black" cover from Walmart - it works fine for the purpose and looks hell of a lot better than $9 (Thanks to M54Dave for the tip)

    Dane: if i should become dissatisfied with the cover at any point, Wheelskins EuroPerf will be my next go-to - it requires a lot of patience, and anything less than 100% fir would look ungainly, but I will give it a try if I notice any ill effects from the cover on my wheel.
