Saddle or Beechwood?

I need to paint the seat belt guide on my '85 IROC-Z with a tan custom cloth interior. Is it Saddle or Beechwood? And who makes a good paint? SEM?

Not sure on the color.... but I've used SEM to paint a white headliner black on a 911 and was very happy with the results. I used their vinyl prep first.

I think Beechwood did not come out until 88. Saddle would be the correct color for an 85. Also, I had to paint a new plastic panel and just went to my local automotive paint supply store and gave them the interior color code and they mixed a spray can of beechwood perfectly. It was a 100% match.

I am sure a local shop could do the same for you on the saddle color. If you have a hard time finding a paint supply store to do let me know and I am sure my local paint supplier could do it for you.
