Hi - I wanted to say, "in the voice of, 'Where's the beef?'" - Anyway, in my 2016 I presume the seating surfaces are all leather, and also the contact points on the steering wheel, and probably even the center of the steering wheel. Then I don't know.
Dashboard leather or vinyl? (or that MB Tex stuff?) how about the arm rests? Arm panels (upper part of doors?) Center armrest?
on the higher trims, the dash has that cross stitched leather, or at least it looks like leather to me - not sure about the "lower" nappa packages.
Thansk for any help - trying to decide which cleaners and conditions to use, and where to use each product.

Do you have the exclusive package?

sorry, i should have mentioned - yes i do - so there's a bit more wood (which may be plastic? guess that should be another post)...

It's wood.

I have the designo and exclusive nappa, everythings leather.

garygnu

so do you mean the arm rests, door tops (near windows), dash board (front, top), etc.?
thanks!

i'm not arguing, but how do you know?
i removed the "wood" panel by my ashtray to run a wire for the cigarette light for an inductive charging mat - that thing was plastic all the way (which really disappointed me) - had the plastic stampings from the mold, etc. - i may have posted a photo.
then it made me question if the wood on my wheel is wood or plastic, the long "wood" piece along the front of the dash, the door and seat inserts (exclusive), etc.

Mines piano blk im sure its plastic, w exclusive everything u see is leather. I use megs leather care on it all and looks great. griots gar leather spray is garbage and turns white.

thanks, i've had griot's recommended. i used my lexol cleaner and conditioner and it seems okay but not doing quite what i want - there's a lot of shine on the steering wheel - the pores may be clogged or damaged or it may be too late - even our new jeep has a GREAT soft satiny wheel - but then again, it's a month old versus 2 years.
the dealership recommends meguars as well.

I have been using Griots and have liked it a lot.

griots turned white on my blk leather, cleaned it off w my reliable meguires.

It's all wood.. Even over the plastic. They use plastic or aluminum as a backing for the wood veneer.
