I was gonna say take care of your seats, steering wheel and dash too. This is one thing I think is too often neglected with cars, and you end up with cracked and flaking leather. I have seen cars with a giant split down the center/top of the dash too. This is easily prevented with a reflective window visor, and regular cleaning/conditioning of the leather.

I'm just pissed cause my vinyl middle console elbow pad just suddenly, out of the blue, cracked up. Probably this area is the first to go, especially if you have sweaty elbows (salt) and live in a dry area (like Reno). I want to get it recovered with real leather eventually.
