2003 beige interior colour code and 2009 beige colour code?
This is kind of a double posted question but this time it is for my car and not a friends car
The interior colour code on my SL R230 is 205A beige ,another interior colour is 200A, and 8K17 Pebble..
i wonder if any of my fellow members here knows which beige colour code used on 2009 SL R230 is close to the colour in my car?
I think the color code for the steering wheel is 8K17 Pebble but i can not say for sure.
Which interior color is closest to the steering wheel in my car from a much newer SL R230 is what i would like to know
The steering wheel, top of the dashboard, top of center console and armrest on the in my car is called Pebble i think.
I am thinking of replacing the steering wheel with a 3 spoke steering wheel so that is why i ask.
The steering wheel on the picture below does not come with an airbag so will the buttons on the steering wheel work?
Below is a picture showing the interior in my car. Colour code is A205.
What do you think of the colour of this beige steering wheel from an 2009 SL? Do you think it looks similar? Interior colour 8N68 underlined with red is called 8N68 Dark Pearl i think.
The color code is an interior color scheme and may have several different specific colors. EPC will identify a specific color suffix for each part when you search with a VIN number

After i first posted this i went back to the ad for the steering wheel on the picture above and i found the VIN for the SL this steering wheel is taken from and according to the VIN for this 2009 model have the the same"main" interior colour code as my 2003 which is 205A
I was told by a Mercedes mechanic and also the parts department division at Mercedes that the colour code on my car (205A) was no longer used and that the most similar color had a new code (which i do not remember)
This about the colour codes i was told for at least 3 years ago.
But it for sure looks like this 2009 SL R230 have same interior colour code as my 2003 SL according to the datacard for this 2009
Will the buttons on this 2009 airbag work on my 2003 SL R230? They looks quite similar i think.
Buttons on the airbag on the 3 spoke steering wheel from the 2009 SL R230
When looking at the backside of the airbag for the 3 spoke steering wheel from a 2009 model year SL R230 wheel the connctors for this 3 spoke airbag fit the connectors that is in my 2003 SL R230? Will my 2003 year connectors for the airbag fit thse 2009 connectors on this 3 spoke steering wheel from an 2009 SL R230?
Smaller but sharper pic of the airbag connectors i hope
