So armorall type products are a no go?
it depends on the product. The product has to be safe on plastics/vynil thats the most important thing.
Contrary to popular belief leather conditioners are completely the wrong product for modern cars (faux or real leather) as the leathers are sealed with a permanent sealant which is vynil-like. So i.e. 90s luxury cars had this really soft feeling leather - this is because it is actual leather and needs to be regularly conditioned and smoothened and this is the reason it eventually cracks. Modern leather car seats feel kind of stiff and rough and that is because they have this vynil coating on them.
So what you dont want to do is silicon based products as they can dry the vynil surface out. A good vynil conditioner would be the best.
