Home hardware carries it. You can also get it at tack shops or online.

i would NOT use saddle soap it will dry the leather out bad. i would just do the spa treatment i would use baby soap ( if you were just planning using water ) then treat with the leather cpr these King Ranch interiors are VERY delicate you can only use certain products or it will ruin the leather

Yea that's what I was gonna do will it make those little grains peel off cause it's pretty rough but I'll do the spa treatment a couple times then hit with some no tears baby shampoo dry then leather CPR

all of that is sweat and body oils. it should get the blackness out. but i don't think you can fix those spots. it might make them softer and blend in better but it wont be 100%. it looks like it will need a lot of conditioner.maybe 3-4 applications. if you are not busy i would do the spa treatment on all of the seats and the steering wheel if you was just planning on doing the console lid. goodluck with it. it looks like a nice truck and it is best ( in my opinion ) if you do it again with clean towels and just hot water no soap then air dry until it is almost dry then put some conditioner on them i think it would soak it up better because the pores would still be open

If you can't get it to the point that you're happy with it I can still get new console lids.
