OK thanks all, leather dye it is. I'll order a bottle or maybe the
local hobby store has it, but that is a lot harder than the River of

From a long time ago, Dye will soak into the leather because it has a
lot of light volatiles to carry the color into the leather but shoe
polish has a lot of wax that holds the color on top where with little
penetration into the leather it will come off on your clothes.

The SL600 has a bit of wear on the driver bolster where you slide in
and out, getting kinda white. I was thinking that some liquid black
shoe polish might touch it up.
The vinyl door top part where you rest your arm is also a bit worn,
was thinking that the shoe polish would probably work on that too.
I looked up leather dye, not sure how it would be radically different
from the shoe polish. Plus a small bottle is $7 and I have some of
the shoe polish I think. The shoe stuff probably would not be a
"perfect" match but it would probably not be particularly
noticeable. I guess I could try a dab with a swab to see how it
works and looks.
Thoughts?
