What part of the interior is leather?

Im trying to get products in line for cleaning the car. I was curious as to what parts of the interior is leather and what is vinyl. So far I figure all the surfaces on the seats you touch are leather. The back and sides of the seats and head rests feel like and look like vinyl. The perforated door trim feels like vinyl as does the center console. I cant tell if the armrests are leather of a lower quality or are also vinyl. Ive searched for an answers and they seem to confirm it but I want to double check in case there are any differences between makes and models.

I plan on using lexol cleaner and conditioner for the leather, and aerospace 303 for both the leather and the vinyl. Any other suggested products to use would be appreciated.

(As you said)Just the parts that your back and ass touch are actual leather. If yours is perforated (tech) be careful how much conditioner you use as it easily soaks into the foam cushion and I believe that it has caused mine to deteriorate a little faster than it should have (Ironically, I just noticed this 45 min ago). The stuff on the doors, arm rest, center console lid, etc. is vinyl.

I usually spray the conditioner on a rag and use that to apply to the seats, and then take a clean piece of cloth and buff out the excess.
