Red seats leached dye into carpet - best cleaner ??

[lr_defender]

Hi I recently purchased a f/l 1.9 with red Oregon seats . Seats are v good condition but psssenger side squab is much paler . Somehow the passenger seat must have been in a deluge that has leached a lot of the red dye out into the carpet - drivers side not a problem .

what’s the best way to remove this from the carpet or am I fighting a lost cause ?

thanks !

You also have the problem that someone has redyed those seats without sealing them. Factory and properly sealed seats after renovation do not do that.

Replacement carpets are relatively cheap and plentiful. If a little fiddly and time consuming to fit. I would think about doing that.
