Cloth Seats (Staining)

I have cashmere interior and the front seats seem to water stain really bad. Just curious if anyone knows a good cloth cleaner? I can get in my HHR after a rain storm and if I track in a little water on the seats they spot up, really bad. I tried a damp cloth and scrubbing but this only leaves more spots. Anyone else experienced this?

Wet Okole's? How do you like them? Fitment? Durability? Cost? Ease of installation?

Go to Walmart and get some stuff called Prestone Upholstery Cleaner. It's about $5-$6 a can and works great on the seats. I've got the cashmere seats too and it works great and dries really quickly too.

Yup! It was $475 (including shipping). They are custom made for HHR so they fit great. It's two-tone black and graphite "inserts." It took me about 3 hours to install... 2 hours on the backseats because I tried everything I could without removing the bench seats. Eventually I remove the bench and that only took about 45 min. I'll try to post pictures this weekend.
