I use Leatherique. It will really deep clean your leather. The interior of the car needs to be as warm as possible and it needs to soak into the leather for close to 5 hours but it really works well. Not the cheapest product but it works as advertised. Here is a link to their website.

To get Started
Prestine Clean and Rejuvinator Oil you can order the 8oz size and try it out. 8oz will be enough to do a Bonneville two times.

The web sits says that each seat requires 4oz but I have found that 4oz will do both the front and the rear seats on a Bonneville. It is real easy to use and by working it in with your hands you can really feel the oil penetrating into the leather.

Best of luck and give us a report back with your findings.

I did my brother-in-laws 98 Mustang this past summer and he was amazed with how much dirt was removed from the seats.

Matt:
Try using Detailers Paradise for a shipment to Canada. Here is a link.

I have used Detailers Paradise in the past and find their customer service to be outstanding.
