Fabric dye pen. There's a DIY in the DIY Index Guide.

I used the Fabric Mate's Red color dye pen. You can find them at your local Hobby Lobby or Michael's stores. It was the chisel tip that I used, I ended up getting two pens, since they were like $1.90 each and to top it off 1 pen was more then enough and did the job for me!

Just a tip that should help ya out whenever you decide to do this. Once you color couple inches, feel free to put slight pressure on that damp MF towel or paper towel while wiping the leather and then run a dry paper towel or MF towel on top of it to make sure you don't leave water behind. I did not do this and I have very little and light staining on my dash that I need to clean up this weekend. Its not noticeable but I found that doing what I mentioned above really helps you avoid having to deal with issues like this later and it's exactly what I had done unknowingly for the rest of the car other than dash, so I am glad I only have to clean the dash.
