Rear Deck Shelf / Interior Color Code
My rear deck shelf has faded to a purple state. I would like to refresh the shelf to its original color by way of upholstery dye however I am having a problem matching the color of the shelf.
My plate indicates that the interior color code is 528 or on Russian EPC is 528A. I have the 2 tone color interior seats with gray inserts. Through searching here, I have seen the color considered to be charcoal or I have seen anthracite.The upholstery shop does not find the code 528. They have MB463L Charcoal Black, MB7315 Anthracite, and S110 Black.
As far as the shelf, I have seen the part number 210 690 15 49 with power shade. I have been unsuccessful locating this online.
So my questions are:
Is there an alternate color code for the 528 color code? What are the separate colors for the gray and charcoal/anthracite colors? Is the color of leather the same as the carpeting?
Whats the current part number for the shelf with shade? Dealer only part?
Bonus: While I am back there, should I lubricate the rods that raise an lower the sunshade? With what? I notice when cold it sticks slightly but not when warmer.
Thanks in advance. I have spent hours looking for the specifics, now I turn to the experts.

I think that you have spent too much time on whatever and in the wrong place-----why not simply drive over to the dealership have a doughnut and look at their color code charts----then go to the parts dept give them your VIN and start asking questions
Alternatively, remember EPC is FREE, repeat FREE---why not subscribe and spend weeks looking for parts!!

I had to get to the office since I do not own Windows products at home. EPC does not work with Apple. A 210 690 32 49 9C89 - Rear portion with Shade Cutout
A 210 690 30 49 9C89 - Front Portion for Speaker Grills
Turns out I had the wrong part number.
My real question was in terms of the color code compatability. I was wondering if the 2 colors Condor Anthracite/Gray had alternate/compatible MB color codes. When I called the Dealership (while eating a donut at my office
), they simply indicate that's all they have in the system, which I can do from EPC whether Russian or gratis. In my MB brochure, it is marketed as Charcoal but EPC calls it Anthracite. Maybe its a bit overkill over but I want to measure twice before cutting. Especially if I am dying fabric
