C
Should be on the driver's side door post:
Interior color
Type C
I believe it's light tan:
04815-SEP-A00ZC ACURA TL L. SEAT TRIM *YR167L* COVER SET (SIDE AIRBAG)(LEA) ( LIGHT TAN )

C is correct...but I think the trim code is called Light Cream Ivory...not Light Tan.

I have read dozens of threads here about interior colors, trim codes, etc. and I'm STILL confused what mine is.
(I have nothing on my driver's side door post)

I have 2008 TL base model, its interior LOOKS tan/ivory/parchment/taupe/beige WHATEVER! (my young daughter called it "yellowish-brown")

Floor mats is one thing ... but I've been looking for the seal/trim/garnish/subseal WHATEVER it's called.

Is all this confusing nomenclature done PURPOSELY or is it just sloppiness on the part of whoever writes this stuff up in the manuals, parts lists, promotional literature, etc ???

What does a person do if they have no "sticker on the driver's doorpost" ???

Thanks.

I know on my other cars if you put your vin in a vin reader it will tell you everything the car came with...used on Euro models and works fine not sure there is VIN decoder available to use with Honda/Acura etc. That will tell you for sure without the window sticker what the car came with from the assembly point

Wow just realized this is almost 5 year old revival...

Need to update my earlier post that was in error and so were other posts I made years ago. Interior C code is Parchment, but the the part number suffix of C is just a part number code and nothing to do with the color code on the car.
Hope it's clear, so I'll repeat, the code C on the door post is Parchment, but the C suffix on the part number is actually for Light Tan and has no relationship to the code on the car, just a bad coincidence.

Yes, thanks for the suggestion ... I appreciate you taking the time.
I tried that also, but it reports that it's not an Acura VIN !!
On the Acura Owners website it says the same thing, so I contacted them. Their answer was that they thought I was giving the wrong number, even though I assured them I'd gotten it from the VIN plate under the windshield, from the TLC card you get when you buy new one, from my vehicle registration etc.
They asked me to photo these items and send to them, so I did. Never heard a word back from them after that.

Maybe they're checking factory records to see if one slipped out of the factory with the wrong VIN plate.

1. Graphite (black)
2. Light Cream Ivory (Tan)
3. GrayGE (Taupe/Gray color)
