Interior Color Code for '95 850[ALL/1998] posted by Bruce on

I have searched thorugh the manual for which line on the tag plate under the hood and cannot figure out which one (line) is for interior color. Is it two, three, four... or more digits? I just call my interior leather charcoal, and dash and doors dark grey. But I need to know the color code to order a set of cup holders that are supposidly matched to Volvo's interior with the correct code.
Also I have been told that the center console found on 1997 ( I don't know about 1996) models that are cushioned/padded leather on top and contain a pull/slide out cup holder below cannot be installed in place of my thin, hard, non-upholstered center console cover. It really is not even an arm rest because it is so low and thin. Being 6'2", I really like the fact that the "newer" style is higer, closer to the highth of the door arm rest, padded, and has a piece of leather atop it, rather than plastic. It looks as though both styles share the same "bolt on" pattern and the hinge looks as if it is the same. If anyone has experience on this It would solve me having to purchase additional cup holders and I would have a better, higher, more comfortable arm rest. As always thanks for all of your responses!!!

Bruce,
There should be 2 columns on the product plate. The trim code is in the right
side column on the second row. It is a 4 didgit number. Volvo does offer a drink holder arm rest for this model. I'm not sure if it is the same as 97 model.

Hi bruce, my name is Carlos; the interior colour of your car is ghaphite,
anyways the center arm rest w/cup holders come in two colours only, the graphite and the beige , also called taupe.Instead of being flat, this one is paded and a little highier, but still not enough for your size.Volvo has another one
which was sold like an option,again in both colours,but this one has two cup holders for the rear passengers too, ask your volvo dealer parts dpt. to get one for you, probably it will be in stock.Ah ahh this one is much higher than the standard one.Gooooood luck.
