Leather seat code / colour

[Ciaran]

Afternoon

How does one go about finding out what colour the seats are? The car in question is a 1998 SL 320. I'll get a picture up when I get home but it's a cream / mushroom colour.

Thanks

Ditto above. I'd like to find out the colour of my 2004 CL500's interior (I'd describe it as beige). I want to recondition the seats with liquid leather and there are lots of Mercedes beige leather options.

Look on the datacard affixed to the inside back cover of the service record. The interior colour is a three digit code. You can then look this up in the Electronic Parts Catalogue, in a contemporary brochure or on one of the many, many enthusiast sites that catalogue these things.

If using "liquid leather" you will need to have it matched to the leather in your car. The colour code is not enough.
