    Re: best way to check "original" carpet

    I will try to attach an image showing the saddle floor mats that I received from Corvette America compared to the much darker carpet I received from Romeo Engineering. I contacted Romeo Engineering and Dennis left me a message stating that he verified that this is the correct shade of saddle carpet for a 1968-69 Corvette (I have my doubts); you be the judge.

    Dave,

    I'm not a 69 guy, but the saddle in my 72 is Dark Saddle, and it's dark. If I could make your picture larger, that would help. I think there are about 5 shades of "saddle" used in 68-82 Corvettes, maybe more when you count the different names. My guess is that the floor mats are a generic saddle color.
