Are these carmine or flame?
These pics were sent to me from a seller but he doesn't know the interior rpo code and doesn't have the spid sticker. They look flame red to me, but I was hoping somebody might be able to give me a second (or third) opinion.
Thanks,
Jack

They do look like Carmine,can't really tell by the pic.I'm trying to think where you could take them for a definite color match,maybe a GM dealer???

Look at the last 2 digits in the code.That is usually the year they came from.That will give you a starting point

Re: Are these carmine or flame?
He said it came out of a '92 Camaro which would lead me to believe they're actually bright red not flame, but the SPID sheet is unavailable to confirm this though. Not that it really matters because if I do get them I'll just end up refinishing them with SEM Flame Red and sending the belts out for replacement as they are pretty faded from what I'm told.

They look the same as my Carmaine, but my car is an 87 so not sure if there is a differance? I'm sure it's close as my seatbelts don't match the seats 100% and my car is all stock with 50K on it so it's all in good shape.

They appear to look more like Carmine.

They look like they have maroon color.
