Question How do we remove Pen Marks on plastic

We just got a CPO car, and we didn't check the back seats thoroughly.

There is a scribble on the black plastic next to the back seat windows. It looks like a kid just took a marker and scribbled there. Is there any way to get rid of it? It's very annoying!

TIA!

try a little perfume or cologne on a cloth and rub gently. gets marker pen off smooth surfaces with ease due to the alcohol content.

Do you have any pics?
