Angry dirty leather

Any ideas on how to remove deep dirt on the seats. It's showing badly on the creases in the leather. I've tried Meguires, and Lexol. They're good for surface dirt, but this dirt is on it good. It's not stained, but just ground in. What about using a soft brush? Ideas?

Cool

Try using a toothbrush gently with the Lexol glycerine soap. Many gentle attempts are better than once roughly. Hopefully with enough persistance, it'll come out for you!

At one time, I was working at a detailing shop and they would use #0000 steel wool in conjuction with a leather cleaner and it would help to pull some of the deep durt out of the leather. It worked really well, but I don't know what the long term affect of the steel wool on the leather will have. Just don't ever take the steel wool to dry leather. It needs to be used along with a liquid\cleaner of some kind.
