Fun fact -- the Michelin wiper blades that Costco sells are licensed and made by First Brands. But the company has comitted some sort of financial fraud, filed for bankruptcy, and is close to a settlement.

US Costco has also switched to selling BFGoodrich wiper blades instead of Michelin ones. No idea who the actual manufacturer is. Let's see if it is the same garbage as the Michelin ones or not...

For circle jerkers like EvoFire, that's perfectly acceptable for BMW standards.

What do you guys use as an easy cleaner/protector for leather seats? Giving my wifes Rav a clean today and the back seats in particular need some love from all the dirt and kids snacks ground into them.

Still got my original bottles from many years ago. I probably don't use them as often as I should.

I use Optimum No Rinse diluted to 1:100 to clean and CarPro PERL to protect. if it's really dirty I'll use whatever all purpose cleaner I have handy (right now it's CarPro MultiX, next up is P&S Express) except it's diluted.

If you're buying from Canadian Tire the Adam's stuff works just fine - cleaner and protector.

Pretty much all but the super expensive leather seats are clear coated so they can be cleaned and protected the same way you clean the interior plastics/leathers.
