So, I've searched a little on this.. And I believe a while back I stumbled upon a fella that posted on the site that works at a leather manufacturer for airplanes, furniture, or something of the sort.. Anyways, he had clearly identified WHAT is Leather, and what is Vinyl in the S2000... He also posted the specifics on what to use to clean leather, and vinyl.. And that you can use a leather cleaner to clean leather AND vinyl, but CANNOT use a vinyl cleaner on leather..

I'm trying to find this post, but to no avail.. lol..


I'd like to put this into this ONE thread, stating WHAT is what on the S2000, as far as the interior's go..

I, for one, have a MY05.. I believe the seat centers are Leather, and the boulsters are Vinyl.. And that the center console is Vinyl, along with the door inserts and Center Console Arm Rest..

I'm all for using Leather Cleaner on everything leather/faux-leather/vinyl in my car.. but, I'd like to also be a little anal with it as well, and use Vinyl cleaner on the vinyl, and so forth.. This is the reason for this posting.. lol


Start posting up what ya'll know!! I'll add it to this first post!


Thanks guys!

 

Sorry I can't contribute but I was about to post something similar...

can anyone make any recommendations for what protectant spray to use for the dash? Mine's looking pretty dusty and almost faded. I'm hoping to use something that will make it shine.

 

Hope this helps a bit,

I don't think the e-brake handle is leather since the AP1's are plastic.

My understanding is with Honda products - if it has holes in it - it is leather - no holes - not leather.

I have heard this several times over the past several years from different sources. Can anyone clarify this for sure?

 

Well, the stock shift boot on my AP2 was definitely leather, and it was not perforated. The back side of it was suede - definitely real leather. The steering wheel rim is also real leather, and it isn't perforated either.

 

see the thread in my signature, I was the one who posted all the info, if you need anything let me know. I just realized by membership ran out, will sign up again tonight when I get home...left my wallet there!
