Sorry if this is the wrong section, I couldn’t really think where else to put it.

Got a light leather interior and the drivers seat is suffering the usual wear these suffer from, passenger a bit but not nearly as bad, are there any decent products anyone could recommend to bring a bit of life back into the leather and hopefully stop it cracking or are the only realistic options a seat cover or a re trim?.

Gliptone/liquid leather colour matched repair kits have worked wonders on my BMW’s lemon leather bolster.
You might be able to get a kit from them off the shelf by providing your upholstery colour code if you have it, or you can send a headrest, scrap of excess leather cut from under the seat or similar to them and they’ll custom mix.
I went with a headrest going on the assumption that the leather will have all changed colour through age over the years and any bits underneath the seat would now be a different colour to the rest of the visible, undamaged portions.
