Looks like for 98 the choice is Graphite or Neutral. Graphite has to be a dark grey or black, and neutral must be tan(???)

You might want to just go to the dealer and order it... list price plus taxes is probably cheaper than the shipping costs, and it'll be easer to return if wrong.

Good luck on the spring...

Just got these in the mail. I have never seen this part on my car....EVER. Looks like the part # might have been wrong.

They're a little grainy, but my original is the same.

#7 is the exact Part I need. The ones I received for 2.16 a piece look like some cheap cheap CHEAP *** plastic clips. Can you get me a # for #7?

All the info I have is on this thread. If you click on "no7", the part number appears to be 10284234. That is the expensive latch assembly.

Can you post a picture of your latch?

Here ya go. As you can see the Actual Paddle is fine. Its the clip that holds the paddle from popping out that is broken. If you need a different angle let me know.
