Leather care for CL-S

I have some questions regarding the leather seating surfaces in the CL-S:

1) The area on the seats that are perforated are real leather right? I assume the smooth surfaces are just vinyl inserts?

2) What do you all recommend as a good leather cleaner? I used the Lexol leather cleaner and condition.

Any anwers you all may have would be appreciated.

you can tell where the vinyl starts and the leather stops. the perforated, side bolsters, sides of the bottom and headrest are leather, but the section right at the front of the bottom cushion is not (you will feel the difference when you push on it. it doesn't stretch the same and has a different texture).

i use lexol cleaner and conditioner, but just ordered some zaino leather-in-a-bottle to see how that stuff works. there's no wipe off with that stuff.

I've been using the Eagle One leather conditioner, and I've been real pleased with it. My friend has an I30 and he likes the Eagle One stuff over the Meguiar's.

I ordered the Zaino leather, and it works great. It's not greasy and it's really easy to use. Lexol is also a good product. I would probably only order the Zaino leather again if I was also buying some of their other products. Otherwise Lexol is more than good enough for the job.
