well if you got the dark slate you will have an easier time. either way be concious of what is in your and your passengers pockets. Pens especially. buy a good cleaner like zymoil and keep them conditioned. not to the point that you are sliding off the seats, but just so the leather has some moisteure.

enjoy!

no worries!

According to the Owner's Manual, Mopar Total Care should be used. Otherwise just a damp rag. No conditioners should be used it says.

I've always been a big fan of the Lexol family of products. Leather does dry out, get dirty and should be cleaned and conditioned on a regular basis. If dirt gets between the stitching and the material, it can eventually wear away and tear the leather. I like to clean every three months and condition at that time.

Like I mentioned, Lexol makes some excellent leather care products. I haven't tried Zaino's leather stuff, but I've heard nothing but good things. I just got some a bottle each of cleaner and conditioner from Four Star Ultimate. I've been told that it works as well as Lexol but doesn't leave an oily finish behind.

Since I don't own a Magnum (yet), I can't comment on the manual. However, I am a car car junkie (some say I'm just plain nuts), so I'm always looking for the best materials to make it look better, last longer and be faster.
