Smile Interior dyeing DIY

decided to do some mods to my interior , make it duo-tone, something similar to BRABUS , so far center console and seat belt trim done , maybe this weekend will get to the driver's seat , reason for the seat ,is that i can't find MUSHROOM dye , all others available but this.... so it will be black-mushroom....seat is in bad condition
don't think someone applied conditioner before me, I'm using GLIPSTONE -
what a smell i must tell you , i haven't tried Zaino's "leather in the bottle" but Glipstone is amazing ,like new leather smell .
what kind of treatments do you guys use?

Looks good.... great job!! I would like to know how to do that.
but, I never thought that tan and black mixed well together. Im looking for black and gray or something like that.

Well, i already have the 2 tone interior, but there are somethings that I would like to change.

I use Zaino's Leather in a Bottle. Came with a whole Zanio package I bought for my corvette, but since the interior is so small in the vette, I use it on my W140s. It is AMAZING! If you use the Zaino Bros leather cleaner and then the leather in a bottle, its like having brand new leather! THe Smell is so good!

i read the title and thought, he's gonna dye the seats, so i thought what if it rains and you get wet. you sat in your dye seats and you have like seat patterns all over yourself. thats what i was thinking. anyways the center piece around the stereo is really nice.
