Why don't you call Legendary and Year one and ask them? They deal with these questions everyday.

My '73 has two tone blue seats. The original car color was petty blue (sorry, don't know the code for that) but I'm having it repainted B5 blue as I type. It looks very good with the two tone blue seats. Of course that's kind of a bias'ed opinion, but just thought I'd let you know.

If your car came with cloth & vinyl interior (2-tone) your fender tag will read H5B5.
If your seats were one solid colour, it would read H6B5 on your fender.

H6 = Vinyl Bucket Seats
H5 = Cloth & Vinyl Bucket Seats

If I'm not mistaken, Carpeted lower door panels were included with the cloth & vinyl interior.

Just to clarify what I posted above, my seats are all vinyl. The center of the seats is the darker blue (darker than the B5) and the outside is the B5. When I first got my car, I think it had all the original door panels in it and they did not have the carpet on them.

True, good point, I kind of misread the original posters post.
The above post of mine is for cloth inserts, not two tone colour.

I'm not sure what the codes are for two tone seats & what cars came equipped with them & how you tell.  :dunno:



Barry or FY1 will know.  :cheers:
