MM Dashboard colour
Hi this s my first post. Has anybody found a supplier of the "Gold "colour that is used on the dashboard and glove box. The colour code is 2RB8 according to my research.
Any info would be appreciated.

Re: MM Dashboard colour
Every paint manufacturer should have the possibility to make it, with the make and model from the car.
I found out, the green colour from the sidevalve engine is an actual Land rover version.
The paint specialist got an engine part, and called me with the question, is this an English part, because of the matching colour...

I know the ESM guys have paint, but this is the restriction:

Re: MM Dashboard colour
I am aware of the restriction but the OP has no location listed so the information was given on the assumption that he was in the UK.TvdWerf wrote:I know the ESM guys have paint, but this is the restriction:

Re: MM Dashboard colour
I also need to repaint them, but I think I will use the same way as with the engine ;)

Re: MM Dashboard colour
I actually took my glovebox lid to Halfords and found an exact match from their stock of spray cans and also bought one from ESM so it is best to use a local supplier if you live abroad and take the item in to the stockist for colour matching. They can even analyse the paint colour from an inside surface and reproduce it in aerosol or brush paint for you.

Hello Boomlander, does the one you found in Halfords have a name or number. Cheers smithskids.

Re: MM Dashboard colour
This post is a good example of identifying the poster's location (country) so responses can be proper for the region. I could not tell if Boomlander was UK, USA or elsewhere. Another board I check often has the country flag and name next to the poster's name. Failing that, it would do well to put your country on each post if you are asking for help.

Re: MM Dashboard colour
Point taken, I have added country of origin to my profile.You will note that the original poster has not listed any location at all.Larryb wrote:This post is a good example of identifying the poster's location (country) so responses can be proper for the region.

Re: MM Dashboard colour
To late for Halfords Gold J52223 in my area, the dutch shops are all gone.
The shop in my area is still there, complete filled, but does not start selling anymore
