Wheel touch up paint code S70

My wife's 98 S70 has "Spica" alloys with a bit of curb rash on the edges. I don't want to buy the spray can of paint from the dealer. Anyone have an idea what colour will match if I go to the local Canadian Tire and buy the small bottle/brush touch-up applicator? Not looking forward to standing in the isle with the rim in hand trying to find a match.

Also, I'm going to have to buy my third red door lamp for the drivers door. Seat belt is slow to retract (or my wife is too fast closing the door), is there any way to speed up the retractor or is it just getting old. I'm considering removing the lamp and putting a piece of much cheaper 3M reflective tape over the hole....

    Seat belt slow to retract V70-XC70 1999

    The belt was slow to retract on my wife's V70, also. The dealer in Jackson, Mississippi, replaced the entire seatbelt and spool mechanism under warrenty. Maybe this is a common failure, and possibly the dealer will replace yours.

      Thanks, I'll try....

      No takers on the paint colour? It snowed here yesterday, snows are going on tomorrow and I'm going to be the guy in the paint isle holding the wheel looking like the dope unless someone comes up with an answer!
