oops misread, if its on your seats dont use toilet bowl cleaner.

Try mixing degreaser with some water and scrubbing with brush, then wipe with towel. Try a small area first to see if it works first before doing a large area.

Its a mold that is imbedded into the vinyl. You may make the "stain" less visible with different remedies but it will keep popping back. Sometimes it's the grade of vinyl that speeds along the process of the mold appearing and sometimes it's the environment you boat it. Try Googling How to remove pink mold and you will end up with a ton of answers...

Use Q-tips and a variety of stain removing chemicals like Chlorox, peroxide, oxalic acid, etc. on very small areas until you determine which works best. I' ve used an old toothbrush to work chemical into surface. Chlorox plus time plus sunlight is a pretty good combination. After stains are removed apply a good vinyl cleaner/UV protectant to surfaces to help protect from future stains....

Wow, I didn't even notice it. Good catch. The sad thing is that I saw the same thing happen on another forum a month ago. I should have remembered that.
