Body Tag info Questions...

Post by acarlson »

Here is the body tag for my Corsa:

Here is what I've decoded it as:

Questions:

1. Is this an accurate decoding ?
2. What is the difference between "Interior paint code" and "Interior Color" ?
3. Is "Interior paint code: D" Red ?
4. Is "Interior Color: 785" Red ?
5. What does the "2" mean for Body Color "R-2" ?

If my decoding is correct then the entire interior of my Corsa has been changed by a previous owner.

Also, is there a code anywhere on the car that specifies the color of the ragtop ?

Thanks -

Alec

The convertible is captured in the R-2. The 2 should mean black convertible top. The R is the red body color.
If for example it was a single color coupe then it would be R-R = Regal red

Thanks,
