Anything that protects from UV rays.......That is what you want. Armor All is VERY bad to your interior (especially the BIG **** DASH PAD). Heats up very quickly and then cracks your stuff. I use Mothers Preserves or STP Son of a Beotch

Arent they totally different things? .. I dunno if leather conditioner is good for you plastic pieces. I use Natural shine on my plastics and Lexol Leather conditioner on my seats. Lexol makes some plastic protectant too.. but Lexol stuff is like atleast twice as much as everything else and theres sooo much plastic on our cars to put it on..

lexol is THE stuff for leather.... i love the stuff......
but their plastic stuff isnt as good as natural shine... atleast IMO.
i really like the clean, new plastic look natrual shine does.... without making it overly glossy... (unless you want it glossy, then just do two coats)
also, natural shine dries..... so its not slippery and doesnt attract dust.
you CAN use it on your steering wheel, pedals, shifter, ect.... just let it dry before you drive (about 5mins)

On top of that, Armor All makes everything REALLY SLIPPERY! I did my whole interior in it and couldnt hold on to the steering wheel and it was a pita just to stay in the seat in the turns
