ive had my interior for around 3 months now but ive never had to clean it untill now. my front seats are getting dirty/messy, just wondering how to clean it.
i was thinking steam clean but would this affect the leather?

please dont touch them with steam.
You need 2 products....leather cleaner to clean them and leather conditioner to keep the leather nice and soft. Here are the links for the products i use.

you also want to buy a detailing SOFT brush so you can rub the cleaner in more, into the gaps as you wont get them all by hand ;).

do not steam clean!
I use meguiars APC for cleaning leather,next product down id recommend using GLIPTONE leather cleaner.
First up i wipe the seats with a microfibre dipped in quite hot water and wrung out,so the clothes kinda warm,on completion of that i liberally spray on megs apc and agitate with a detail brush,then wiping over with a clean damp microfibre:)
To finish of GLIPTONE LEATHER CONDITIONER is applied,results are always spot on:)
