Ok, I am not an idiot and do a lot of work on my car myself which I enjoy. But I have run into a problem and I guess I will call a dealership tomorrow and see if someone can help me. I have a 2011 E350 Coupe. I know where to find the exterior paint code that is easy. But the only interior code I can find is the 230 code which shows Leather nappa. That is it...that doesn't give me any indication of what the COLOR is unless I am missing something here. This is the plate under the hood and the door jam pic. If ANYONE can tell me the actual color of the leather seats I have...I would very much appreciate it. I have some leather cracking and one spot that needs to be fixed and I want to make sure I get the right color for the seats! Thanks everyone!
FYI- My car is a mocha black outside with a mocha/almond inside. Basically beige/tan and mocha interior. But that doesn't give me the exact color of the leather for a perfect match to restore the leather seat areas that need help!
YOU are so awesome! Thank you so much for the help. I sent the color and information to a company that mixes leather dye and can get me a custom match!
I know RIGHT! But this was just pulled. I bought this for cash in 2015 and surprised that my info is not on it. Guess it is just original owner. I did get some dye from this to redo the seats and I am very thankful. Pain that they make this so difficult. The 8805 is not on my metal plate on the hood.

Thanks Joe. Unlike TexasGirl, I see a lot of my stuff on there. I bought the car 4 years old in 2013, and did a Google search of the prior owner (actually leaseholder) and thought I had found him on a site called "mugshots.com"! The 4 year old car had fewer than 17,000 miles on it so I thought his prison stay explained that! Now I see there was plenty of service and repairs happening during that period so there goes that theory!

No way to find color of leather inside?
