I have seen it done on household furniture with good results.
Check the Yellow Pages.

Yeah , I've dealt with Eastwood before for auto stuff. Steering wheels take a lot of abuse. I'll have to check them out.

I would suggest go to www.leatherique.com

They sell a variety of leather dye and care products. Very popular in auto restoration circles. Their stuff is very popular with Ferrari circle as they are notorious for having poor wearing leather.

I redid the leather interior in Ferrari that I owned. To do it correctly, it was a major undertaking to remove the old dye and re-dye. But, the results were worth it. Final result was a Ferrari national award.

If you're not particular, you could check out your local paint supplier, or someone dealing in doll-up supplies. You can purchase give it a quick blitz before it goes down the road used-car type product.
