Westy: Where's paint code?

I have a 1984 Westy and need to find the paint code for it. This van was a european delivery, and is painted in the euro-spec John-Deere green (not available in the US). I need some touchup paint, and the local shop can whip me some up if I can only find the code...

I looked under the driver seat and in the door sills, but nothing resembling the code. Anyone know where to find it?

Lacking the paint code a good paint shop can match it using something removable. You would most likely have to buy more then you want though.

Ok, i'll try to help, but unfortunately (for you :) it is in Dutch.

Go to:

On the left side of the page there is a navigator, goto 'het m-plaatje', it shows you the location of the code. Then lower in the same navigator there is a button called 'lakcodes'. This should tell you what colorcode you have, BUT... there is no John-Deere green in that list. So for your sake i hope it is called differently...

BTW 'green' is 'groen' in dutch.

Yea, that did it. The sticker with the code is hidden under the dash, below the fusebox.

Thanks ! Or maybe I should say Dank U

You're welcome :) What is the color called anyway? Is it John-Deere green?

I've seen the paint codes on the fuel tank cover plate in the trunk of my golf and jetta. Check that out in your van.
