I've checked the bar on my T5. Don't see any screws to attach it to the
sides. Someone must have done something to yours to stop the rattling?

kenari1,

It's me again to ask another q. I hope you don't mind. Have you try to
apply leather conditioner and baby lotion alternately? I'm asking you this
because I had been using leather conditioner but I'm also quite eager to
try the baby lotion stuff but afraid that this might have an adverse
effect as one forummer said that by using baby lotion, it tends to leave a
sticky residue and possibility of staining esp if the leather is light
colored.

Or any suggestion from other sifus on my plan.

Regards.

yup, have been doing that to one of the seats. didn't see much difference.

the leather conditioner leaves a slightly sticky film behind and when you
put on the baby lotion, it sort of cleans it off.

For the first time you apply baby lotion you might want to wipe off the
first application with a clean cloth. you will see the amount of muck that
has build up on the leather.
Subsequently, it is really up to you whether you want wipe off the excess
or not.
