Cleaning Sheepskin Seat Covers
The sheepskin seat covers for our DA40 are looking a little skuzzy. These are official Diamond sheepskin covers and are hand made from real sheep!
I have read about dry cleaning or hand washing in cold water. Any experience out there with this? Thanks Marc

Take them to a cleaner that does leather, it doesn't cost much and leaves them soft.

Re: Cleaning Sheepskin Seat Covers
After more research, found a dry cleaner who does sheepskin. It was expensive but the seat covers came back good as new.

It's often worth it to just pay a pro.  Still under $50 for the pair right?
