Impressive young grasshoppa. May the schwartz be with you.

Ahh, going with the reversing system eh? I've been contemplating that but, I can't really justify doing it. It would be more of a 'play-toy' for me... how did you justify it Mike? Rugrats running around and bicycles in the way? Just curious...

I drove an Exploder with one on it and, I will say, it is pretty darn handy when backing out of a tight parking spot or similar.

On the baby soap... no testing will be conducted in my basement.... as... well... I have no basement. The garage is a valid candidate though.

Please post back on how you do with the Johnsons on the steering wheel. I'm anxious to hear how it works out.

I went to CVS last night and bought the Johnson's baby wash. I used it on the steering wheel and am letting it dry before i condition. So far it looks considerably lighter!!! I'll let you all know how it turns out!

Unhappy

Well, after conditioning the steering wheel, and letting it sit overnight, i am very happy with the way it looks, but not happy about the way it feels. It doesnt even feel like leather anymore! It feels like a cheap suede. Not happy I guess you could say it is very nappy and doesnt feel good at all. What do i do???

Condition again and wait a couple of days. That nap will flatten out - it did on mine.

Like Chaos mentioned, I'd recondition again... however; the 'nap' that you've mentioned was my basis for replacement of my wheel.
