I have to say with all the things that could go wrong it went perfectly, not even a leak.

Stay tuned

That's awesome, Steve! Glad it started well. Better hurry, it's already cooling off down here.

Was going to post this elsewhere a while back but this looks like a good time for this question.
Who has the answer to keeping that steering wheel looking like new soft leather?
I love the soft satin look, but after repeated use the leather gets harder and buffed to a shine where you hold the wheel.
Any certain product or procedure to keep it looking new?

Chris, I cannot speak for others but I use the McGuire's Leather cleaner/care and have had great results with it.

Cheers
