Help - leather seat ruined ?

Please look at these photos of my passenger seat on my MDX. It is either dye from jeans, or ink from a pen. My wife discovered it, and she tried to clean it off with Armorall cleaner. She was able to get some off, but I think she also rubbed the rest in deeper. More concerned about the big spot than the small ones. I tried several leather cleaners I had around the house. I also tried Greased Lightning, and believe it or not Turpentine. None of the above did anything to remove even a little bit.

Open to suggestions on how to remove at least some more......from what I see, I don't think it will all come off....ever, but at least I'd like to "hide" more of it.










Thanks

Actually, I tried a number of recommendations from different people. None worked, but at the end I tried Magic Eraser, and that took it out. Of course, all the other stuff I put on the stain probably made it soft for the Magic Eraser. I applied a generous amount of conditioner after and threatened my wife with bodily harm if it happens again.

Wow, glad it got fixed. Was going to suggest a matching color dye.

Here's one of the reasons I am afraid to own a car with light colored leather inside.
