Thanks for the reply, but I am looking for the correct Carpet color for the
New Tan Interior #33 trim as designated on the door jamb data plate.

<< Isn't the "new tan" kind of a "peanut brittle" color?  I once had a 74(?)
 TR6 with that color. In the past, The Roadster Factory was kind enough to
 send me a swatch of an interior seat color so I could make sure I was
 ordering the right color. Its worth a phone call.

        Hi everyone,
 
        I am thinking of replacing my interior carpeting in my 1973 TR6. The
 data
        plate on my door jamb has 33 as a color code for trim. I believe
 this number
        33 refers to New Tan for my interior color. My car has the original
 door
        panels and seat vinyl, but I replaced all the carpets about 15 years
 ago with
        a tan color which I found at a local auto upholstery shop along with
 felt
        under the floor pieces.
         I am not sure what the original "New Tan" interior carpet color
 should be?
         Does anybody know if "New Tan" carpet is dark or light? I know what
 the vinyl
        trim on the carpet and the hand brake boot vinyl looks like because
 I have the
        original seats to match, but what is the correct carpet color? And
 where is a
        good place to purchase?
 
        My carpet is still in very good shape, just sun-faded, I even
 thought of
        dyeing it, (is this a stupid idea)?
