I've used a tube of stuff called "magic wand" with good results before. You can usually find it a fabric stores. It looks like a tube of chapstick, you wipe it on right out of the tube, and then wipe the stain with a damp cloth. They look like those "shout" laundry sticks, but I have not tried that brand before.

Actually, ask your dealer. I remember once before I changed my headliner to black, after a service visit for my sunroof, there were lots of BLACK FINGERPRINTS all over my headliner, I guess when they took it out(They REPLACED my sunroof). Anyways, I bitched, brought it in, and it was cleaned PERFECTLY!
Not sure what they used???

My dealer did the same thing. They told me not to touch it they would take care of it because you could turn it a different color with some other cleaner.

I'd use a soft bristle brush to lightly go over the area first. Next, using a wet cotton towel go over the area lightly – be sure and not over use the same side of the towel. Do not use paper towels, if they have a pattern the dye will end up on the headliner. Watch the amount of pressure you use, could leave imprint on the area. If you use a cleaning product right off it could leave a stain.
Good luck...
