Hello to all. My husband and I are trying to bring our 95 Mark VIII back to life. She has been parked for about 3 years now. So far we got a used set of headlights took it for a spin the other night and we can see again lolol. Trying to breath life back in her slowlyb as you all know it's hard to find some parts.... Looking for some good advice on how to revitalize to leather seats they are dried out and driver seat has a small crack, but I can live with that for now. Also need a couple of cosmetic parts. I think thats it for now

Welcome!

I saw a thread recently on the mk8 side that said fresh trans fluid helps dry leather! Should be easy to find

Really? I think that would leave an odor of some sort or stain. They are ivory in color. I saw one that said Lexol products are pretty good. Was just wondering where to start. Last time i tried to mess with them the leather was kinda flaking off in the grooved parts. Scared I'm gonna mess them up more.

If you want your headlights to last a bit longer get a set of aftermarket HID's they burn cooler and will prolong the life of the reflective material
