I bought a pair of 3rd row leather seats for my Lade and they were never sat in new,but stored in living room of a heavy smoker.
Ive used my Lexol cleaner and conditioner on the leather but the backs and bottom are carpeted and smell so bad I cant drive with windows up.

Anyone have any home remedies or cheap solutions?
Really dont want to take to a detailer to do an ozone treatment.

Fabreeze or Tuff Stuff Carpet Cleaner.I would do both and see how that works.When i got my 02 SS the lady smoked in it and i used Tuff Stuff and the smell went away.

There is a good chance that the seat foam has absorbed the smell, I would take them apart and shampoo the carpets, soak the foam, and really clean the leather.

thanks but theres no way Im going to disassemble those seats.
As noted Ive already used cleaner and conditioner on the leather.
Since I dont need them right now I may bag them with one of those odor killer cones inside. I used that on another car that had a small electrical fire and it took the smell out,but was very slow.

yea man, your going to have to remove the covers and wash those and clean the foams, that's what the smell really gets into.
