Default Seat Belt Guide help

Alright this is getting extremely frustrating for me so figured it's time to make a post. I've ordered a few replacement ones and I keep getting the wrong colors. Not sure what color it is that I have, just that I can't seem to nail down the right one. I've attached a photo that someone can hopefully use to give me a good color ID.

I've looked through this but it's not telling me much. Heres the photo:



You can see the 1 to the left is to dark, the one on the right is to light... the broken piece on the bottom is whats left of my original. Any help in IDing this color, or if anyone has a drivers side they are willing to sell, would be greatly appreciated. Note the 1 on the left is not black, its a VERY dark grey.

Not sure about the color. (I have beige - which yours is not.) If I recall correctly, the 8 digit GM part numbers are stamped on the back of the guides, where the guide touches the seat. If they are there, you should be able to find the correct replacement that way.

(This is the case with most of the plastic parts I've found in the car.)

I'm about ready to resort to some type of dye or paint at this point honestly. Just not sure how I'm going to find the right color.

BTW - The number stamped on the plastic is the correct part number.

Check out Classic Industries. They only sell the beige version of the part, but do call for painting if you need another color. (They sell the correct interior paints also.)
