Part number/colour plate location - front seats

Post Mon Mar 16, 2015 8:52 pm

I've been offered a 318is front seat that seems, from the photos, to be the in Silver Uberkaro check cloth (code 0305/0380) that I need for my '90 cabbie. Where on the seat would the bit of paper/card (which is all I think it is!!) be attached that has the colour code on it?

Cheers!

I think, if it's original, the silver check seats will have grey external sides on the bolsters, and the seat back will be grey. If it's the darker anthrcite, these will be black.

i think there is a printout of stuff under the rear seat base, should be stapled to the foam

Is it only on the rear bench? I've seen a picture if the printout for a seat which, from the pics, looked like a match but the printout says:

Polster (cushion): 0304
Farbe (colour): 205

I'm assuming it is the 'cushion' code that is the one I need to read? 0305/0380 is for the silver uberkaro that I'm after and I'm assuming the 0304 above refers to anthracite?

This seems to be the case from images I've seen, actually - good spot, thanks.
