Gum stick on Leather Seat

To make story short

There is an already chewed gum has stick to my rear back leather seats.

What makes it worst is that I just noticed now in which probably happened 1 week ago, but I have been out for all weeks, and my car has been sitting in the sun, from 9am to 6pm

Is there any cleaner that helps remove the gum and doesn't harm my leather seats?

THANKS!!

Edit: I'm new to car cleaning

Can anyone recommend good interior cleaning product line? Perhaps I can get it at Crappytire Preferably not expensive as my car is not high end like BMW / Audi, but I just want to maintain my car in good leather condition

Autoglym Intensive Tar Remover works awesome for removing gum. If you're not sure about doing it yourself, give me a call and you can pop by. I'll remove it for you.

Maybe not such a good idea... From the goo gone site:

Can Goo Gone be used on leather?

Goo Gone should not be used on fine materials such as leather, silk, or suede.

Goo Gone is pretty good for the exterior of cars but I wouldn't be using it on interiors.

ive always had good luck with steam and hot water out of a kettle. get as hot as you can, apply, gum becomes soft and can be removed with a paper towel
