Go with the Lexol. They have the proper ph balance et al, and work beautifully.
And stay away from saddle soap! It dries out the leather horribly.

You should use that leather shoe shine polish on them. It last a long time. You have to message it into the leather to get it nice and succulent, the ladies dig that.

Lots of places have it, but I can't say for sure whether the big chains in the states have it. I bought it at a saddle shop.

I used to be BIG on Mequiars, well, that was until I found Griots. Their leather cleaning/condtioning products are AWESOME, trust me. Not a "CEG-friendly" price of $30.00 for the 8 oz rejuvinator and 16 oz condtioner, but worth the money. Your going to want to buy some of their interior cleaner as well and yes, its dyed leather friendly
I second that. Tried this stuff out last weekend, and I love it. More importantly, my wife likes it (married folks out there will understand). This stuff doesn't leave the seats slippery like other products I have used, either. But be careful, that Griots catalog/website is like catnip is to a cat to us car obsessed types. And none of that stuff is cheap.
