NO leather is exposed. All of today's vehicles (within then exception of $100K vehicles and above) use a vinyl coated leather. The leather is usually only on the mid portions of the seats and seat backs. With that, There is no need for any special leather conditioner as it will never see the actual leather.Says W/Leather Trim for the heated seats in my Lariat. What part of the seat is actually covered in leather and what is the rest of the seat covered with?
I think just want your Butt's on and where you're back touch's. The side's and front of seat plus back side aren't.Says W/Leather Trim for the heated seats in my Lariat. What part of the seat is actually covered in leather and what is the rest of the seat covered with?
Thanks for all that. But my question was what pieces of the seat covering are leather and what are the non-leather sections made from. Was wondering why they state it as Leather Trim.NO leather is exposed. All of today's vehicles (within then exception of $100K vehicles and above) use a vinyl coated leather.

To test for real uncoated leather (like on a baseball glove) is to place a few drops of water on the seat. If it rolls off it is coated leather. If it is absorbed, it is real uncoated leather. I can assure Ford does not use expensive top grain leather in their vehicles.
"Because clear coats on car paint and clear coat on car leather is a form of "plastic" (a combination a different polymers, resins, polyesters, etc., etc.) care for these coatings has changed the nature of the beast forever. It's just that most people remain in their ignorance and the industry has very little desire to educate". So what you are actually cleaning and conditioning is not natural leather, but natural leather that has been enhanced, re-colored, reconfigured, and coated.
All that is needed to clean today's leather seats is a 409 type cleaner if really dirty then follow up with 303. It can be used on most interior surfaces.

At one time it was called 'leather seating area' but leather trim sounds more like the whole seat.About what I figured. Find the Term “Leather Trim” odd to describe the seating surface.
Yes no Corinthian leather in the Ranger.The seating area is low grade leather..
Your back and behind area.
I learned to drive in that car that Ricardo Montalban shilled for! The Chrysler Cordoba. A huge boat that floated down the road. It would get up and howl (it had a 400 4BBL and when you punched it, the thing just howled). I had a lot of fun in that car.....Yes no Corinthian leather in the Ranger.
The only thing I'm wondering is did yours have the available soft and rich Corinthian leather?I learned to drive in that car that Ricardo Montalban shilled for! The Chrysler Cordoba.

Boy am I dating myself with that one....
I will never forget that car - it had WHITE Corinthian leather seats. My mom HAD to have white seats. My parents ordered the car exactly as they wanted it. I always wondered what Corinthian leather was, and how it differed from real leather. I think it was just a marketing thing.The only thing I'm wondering is did yours have the available soft and rich Corinthian leather?
