Look into Swissvax Leather Cleaner Forte to do the cleaning and use a Swissvax Leather Brush and Detail brush to properly agitate the cleaner.

That should leave the steering wheel with a natural OEM look. You can thereafter protect the leather with Swissvax Leather milk.

If the dye has actually faded on the wheel (can't tell much from the picture) then you can also look into the Swissvax Leather Healer, specifically color F034.

There are a few steps involved prior to using leather healer, so make sure you read the instructions as described in the Swissvax Handbook.
I just looked into that stuff and holy crap it's expensive . Anyone have any other ideas that are less costly? I'll try to get some better pictures of the worn out areas i'm talking about.
