Hello there, I'm looking for the paint color code for the flipseat arms of a SO34 (late 1961).

Is it the L466 silver beige or L471 stone beige ? L467 basalt grey ? The Color Combinations page doesn't really help me, and it doesn't include the camper models (or does it ?)

Here are some pictures of the arms (from the same bus but taken at different times):

Depending on the light and the camera, it looks sometimes more grey and sometimes more beige...


Also, do we agree that this is the same color for the steering column tube, the gearshift and the hand brake lever ?

Thank you for your help !

Pretty sure most of the interior white miscellaneous bits in a Westy are L466 Silver Beige.
