Water spots on seats

Any suggestions for removing water spots/ stains from my leather seats? I have those goofy blue seats (Pacific blue leather/carbon black cloth). To me it feels like the blue portion, which was stained by rainwater yesterday, is cloth and the rest of the seat is black, but that's not what my invoice says. In any case, has anyone had success cleaning up these seats?

since the spots are pretty fresh, i would use some leather
conditioner like LeatherCare spray from Griot's.

if that doesn't work, i would try SpeedShine, then follow up
with LeatherCare spray.

if that doesn't work, i would mask off the non stained
areas and spray some vinegar/water 50/50 mix and let it
soak for a few min. then follow up with LeatherCare spray.

if that doesn't work, i would sell the car and just get a
new one.
