All E30 interior codes with examples.

Nice. red carpet door cards and pulls too, same as my 88. I thought that was 1 year only (switch to anthracite carpet). guess not.
Here's your pic enlarged - interesting you don't have the manual window handle plug on your door card (mine does).


and this is taurusrot supposedly (from earlier in the thread).


So now there's 3 examples of reds all near each other. your crimson looks brighter than my cardinal per the pics, but taurusrot is clearly darker.

Here you go. I cant figure out if Crimson was a legit standard color option for 1989 and the information in this thread is incorrect, or if the info is correct and Crimson was ordered special. I have a HARD time believing anyone would order Crimson special and pay a special cost for it. Its so relatively close to Cardinal, nobody would bother with such an expense on a 3-series car.

Its definitely Crimson. BMW Classic build spec says so. Dealer supplied build sheet confirms. Interior code 0324.

Should take notes that the list is incomplete for interior examples. If you have any scans of the factory BMW interior samples, please post up :)

you would know.. thanks for correcting. is it as dark as taurusrot?

It's almost half way between Cardinal and Taurus.

[bradnic]

Crimson and Cardinal are different. Crimson is darker. And IMO crimson looks better.

I know of a 1989 325is with 0324 Crimson Red Leather. I do not see that as an interior option from those 1989 interior charts. The interior has been verified by BMW build sheets.

Car does also have 0944 Special Order Equipment, but not sure what that might refer to.

My hunt for 151 (Pacific Blue check pattern) was a success having found 4+ yards at a shop in NZ. It wasnt cheap but it also is as close to unobtanium as it gets. I think he has 2 yards left. Not cheap and he wont cut it.

Should look exceptional with the blue Alcantara bolsters (also NLA once current distributor inventory is gone) :)

For anyone who might be interested.

This site is able to supply many OEM options for BMW seats.
I've contacted them to confirm if they can supply to non-trade customers.

I e-mailed West Trading. They will only sell to trim shops. I'm working with John at Ninestitch, and the won't even sell to him, because he does not have a brick/mortar location for his business.

I just realised i have green door pu;;s and green carpet in my car. Well the door pulls and the cards are all changed to black, if only i could get an OEM LHD grey carpet

[cory58]

Hey all, would anyone please confirm the code for this? Bolster is solid grey/silver, insert is striped silver.

Also, how many yards does it take to replace inserts, and how much for just bolsters for two front seats?
Thanks!

I think I see your interior on the 1991 card on the first page of the this thread. Have you looked at that?

No sure how much this will help you, but John at Ninestitch told me that I needed 5-6 running yards to do front and rear seat inserts + door panel inserts on my '92 vert.
