I know there are several write ups on it here. Not sure if I have seen a blue one yet. But everything I have seen so far the colors have been spot on.

I have seen all the ones for the grey, the blues and red interior are odd balls

I do not remember seeing a blue interior paint match post yet, just greys and I think one brown.

Maybe forum member Terrys87 has a post on blue interior color match in one of his restorations??

If no one else here knows and you happen to find one to match the blue interior, please post up!

That blue is very dark looking to me, I don't think it will match without recoloring faded parts which will make the fabric stand out as lighter blue.

Definitely try the SEM customer care or tech support. You can order thier printed catalog from the website.

Fwiw, some of the grey panels have a blue core. No they weren't done by a PO they have the grey color code in the molded in part number.
