Yes you should condition them right away. You have no idea how long the leather has sat since it was first conditioned. The manufacturer may have used leather from a previous year when your seats were made, you never know. Treating them with a quality leather conditioner will replenish any oils that may have been lost over time. You can't over condition leather. You can over clean it though. If you are using harsh cleaners frequently it will do premature damage. Usually a soft sponge with warm water once a week or so is enough. If thats not enough, use a PH balanced cleaner first, then conditioner. It also gives you a fresh coat of UV protection as well. I always treat the leather when I do new car preps.
