Default ARRRG! Gum and suede

My passenger seat somehow found itself with Eclipse Winterfresh chewing gum embedded in its suede. I removed as much as I could but there is still a large, noticeable amount embedded in the leather. Any ideas people??

Use a needle and poke it all out. Last resort.

Get some dry ice and "freez" the gum then try to pick/break it away.

Regular ice should work just as well. Put the ice in a plastic bag and hold it on the gum for a few minutes. It shouldn't take long to freeze it. You should be able to pick it off rather easily. HTH
