I'm buying an aftermarket headrest, for my JT sport s.

How do I match the tan fabric of my interior on the new headrest?

Do auto apholsterers have access to a database of color codes, like how a body shop can match the color of car with paint codes?

I've had limited experience with this - but what I've seen is that they have swatches upon swatches of fabrics/colors. I had the headliner on a saab 92x redone, along with wrapping of the pillars, and yea, I poured over swatches matching the color.

Alternatively, of course, you could do something that coordinates with the color, but doesn't match completely.

Like headrests with the I Love Plywood face ;)

You're welcome :clap:
Ooooh @ralphjjr, you've got some ideas....hmmmmm
