I used this: https://www.amazon.com/Uchida-522-C-.../dp/B000PHIH0S

Just go SLOW, and constantly wipe the area around where you dye with you finger as it keeps the color uniform. I did a few passes, then let it sit a few days, and went over it again.

Thanks! Pen is on order, dash should be here today, and get my car back in 2 weeks lol. Plenty of time to dye the stitches between now and then

Yup, just would take my finger and rub the stitches after I dyed them to blend the colors. Worked great as you can see.

What color is the stitching on your suede kneepads? I ordered some from a reputable seller on ebay and the stitching is black... and the shift boot has white stitching

I got black stitching with my suede knee pads with my factory order. (Actually 1 got with black stitching, and one with red, so I told them I wanted white, and they got me two of the black). Meh.

It's OK, but I would have preferred the white to match everything, but the black is very stealthy.
