I’ve been fighting the 1972 only Dark Saddle/Saddle interior color for more than a year now. A very accomplished builder out of Southern California named Fidel Limon posted he used Rustoleum “Chestnut” for his Saddle interiors. I was shocked the results a rattle can of Rustoleum “Chestnut” gave and honestly I couldn’t believe how close the color was to the OER replacement armrests.

After a year of frustration, and hundreds of dollars spent, here are the results $15 of product from Walmart gave me. Yes I already had the adhesion promoter and the matt clear but for $30 and a 1/2 days work, you can replicate the results.
