What can be used on e39 m5 seats?

I have the BMW Car Care Original BMW Leather Care Kit with UV Protection that I purchased at the dealer. I use it on the 550i when I clean the interior but can it also be used on the e39 M5? The leather in the e39 looks different. What kind of leather is it?

I don't have any pics but I'm pretty sure it has sport interior. All black seats. No vertical lines.

I may be wrong but I think there are only two different kind of leathers used. 1. What the Germans call "Prägeleder Nappa Point" and 2. what is called "Nappaleder Heritage". You have the first kind. Less vulnerable than Heritage leather which is a little softer. If you do a search on Interiors you can find a lot of pics of different interiors.
