How to take care of the leather in your car?

Could anyone recommend anything? I'm especially concerned with the area where your butt moves over when getting in and out.

Lexol leather cleaner then conditioner or Griot's Garage interior cleaner then leather spray both do a nice job keeping the leather clean and supple.

Possible Caution on Leather:

most of the replys and the link refer to coated leather: if you have a recent RX (2010), it may have aniline leather. The info presented says Lexus had not at that time ever used aniline (2004), but they do in some packages now. I know mine is. Not sure how or if that changes the care.
