Sweat, from being a fat bastard?

I wonder if always having the A/C on helps, to stop the sweaty, horrible stuff from damaging the leather wheel/gearknob? I don't think it makes (hardly) buggerall difference to economy - certainly not the 10% that the tree huggers would have you believe - and the comfort factor is so much higher with it on, even in winter

Nothing wears as fast as the buttons on a FL but my PFL air con button went at 60K and I replaced it. It nearly went again except the ac died first.  The steering wheel leather starting going about 100K but was still usable at 190K.

Leather condition depends entirely on how well it's been treated...

Changed my steering wheel at 235k for an Irmscher one, still as new. Likewise, Gear knob has done over 254k, still as new. Pedals are original and only partly worn, climate panel is also original and as new...

Treat any car like a skip and it will soon resemble one

Excuse the fluff

I can see your dainty hands reflected in the pic

They are my hands, but an optical illusion if ever there was

Aha it's not perfect, spotted some wear on the gear stick cloth boot. Try a black marker pen that covers it up. Must have been your polished nails when changing gear

In the words of Albs...

Far koff

Vinyl doesn't wear as well as leather...
