I use Meguiars...they now have a two part process which is much better than the previous gold class conditioner. You can get the Meguiar line in just about any decent automotive store such as Kragen (note Kragen may be named differently depending on your region). I use the entire meguiar line on all of the cars in my garage, especially the leather cleaner and conditioners. The stuff is a tad more expensive than the other mainstream products but meguiar is superior IMO.

If you're looking for that "leather smell" Connolly hide food is the best, but it definitely tends to darken. Lexol is my choice.
You don't have to clean every time you condition, but you do have to condition every time you clean. (If you use seperate products)

The Leather Institute Leather Cleaner and Cleaner/Conditioner/Protector are by far the best I have ever used. No silicone, will not leave your leather shiny and smells great, like new leather, will bring back that new interior smell immediately.
Being in the leather industry, we have continually tested the competition's products and the TLI products are by far my favorites.

If you want the best, I would suggest Leatherique. It is, however, rather pricey. If you want almost the best at a reasonable price, then go with Lexol. I have both in stock. Shoot me a PM if you are interested.

My recommendation is to purchase a protectant that has extra UV protection, especially designed for convertibles. Ours is a special circumstance, unlike 90% of the cars out there with closed roofs. Some products have this extra protection, most do not. Check the labels, and or the websites of the manufacturers.
