Bring the Sonus stuff to the wash/wax in a couple of weeks. Benefits of your job, eh? 
i need to order some stuff from David anyway so if it's on the lsit I may add that in.

Just to clarify . . . when I tried the 303 I sprayed a small amount onto a foam applicator which I then used to apply the 303 to the interior. I let the 303 soak in for a minute or so and then wiped/buffed all surfaces with a microfiber towel. It still left a residue especially on the "coin tray" area around the shifter. Also, the 303 darkened all my plastic, rubber, and vinyl. I had no issues with spotting as I made sure to apply an even thin coat to everything.
The Meguiars Interior QD does provide UV protection I remember reading this on the bottle. However, I'm do not recall reading whether or not it restores the oils, etc to vinyl.

Just to reiterate...never use Armor All or any silicone based product on leather, it will cause the finish on the leather to soften very quickly and it can wear off ridiculously fast, we have done tests and proven that you are better off putting nothing on your seats than you are a silicone based product. As for 303, keep that off your leather too, I have to look at my notes, but I think that was silicone based as well.

I use RAGGTOP on my interior and exterior Vinyl and since my leather is in good shape I use Griot's leather stuff that I have had around for awhile. For my 4Runner which was in bad condition I used leather cpr on it and it looks and feels great. Leatherique is also a very good product. Hate the smell of Lexol
If you insist on using it, use a very very very small quantity like twice a year max.

Ixnay on the Leather CPR...we have seen that stuff build up on so many pieces, watch the white color build up in the cracks at first and it will eventually take over...tends to brown out the black leather.

Just used it once to revive the leather as a test and it did a good job but I don't intend to use it for maintenance. If it doesn't hold up with regular conditioning than it goes in the bin. I still have my leatherique for rehabbing bad leather so no big deal if i lose this one.

The cleaner seems to be ok, but we don't like the conditioner...
