    Silver Colour Code

    Hi,
    I'm hoping someone with a silver Galant can help me.
    I'm wanting to order some paint for my Galant VR4 but are having some problems, my colour code on the VIN plate states H9U?
    I've checked all over and the nearest i could find was H93 which is Alhambra silver. My car is a 1996 P reg and is silver with gun metal skirts.
    Does anyone know if there was only ever one shade of silver used on the galant? or could someone with a silver model let me know what there code is?

    Many thanks in advance.
    Ben.

    Almost certainly Hamilton Silver. A few of the later models were a lighter silver, which is Satellite Silver.
    I would put money on yours being Hamilton, as grey head states above.

    A71 - Hamilton Silver - pre facelift
    A69 - Satellite Silver - facelift?

    Thanks guys, I'm sure you're right with the hamilton silver. Just a bit wary as there is no A71 on my VIN plate?

    VIN plate on bulkhead will have colour code stamped twice. It apperas at the bottom left and mid way down on the right. I think its listed as int and ext col (standing for interior and exterior colour option)
    '97 Manual Legnum in silver with some subtle mods

    My first VR4 - '97 Legnum Dark Green & mean ...it was love at first sight - now sold

    Yeah, I know where to look for the colour codes. But as i said before, the code states H9U for the interior and H9UC for the exterior? Can't find anything relating to this anywhere.

    Ben - PM me your chassis number - I'll run it through CAPS and confirm the paint code.

    Ok, after some searcing the answer is:

    Your car is or was two tone.

    A71 HAMILTON SILVER and A75 THURSTON GRAY.


    I found a Jap site that quotes your code and after a Bable fish visit, came up with that answer.

    So which part of the car is which?
    Have you any pictures?

    Could this have been a factory option?

    Thanks a lot Roberto,
    You've helped me big time and saved me some pennies as well.
    I'm pretty sure it was a factory option, just a bit of a rare one thats all.
    There should be some pics of my car in my gallery, the main body is silver and the skirts are a grey. My bonnet is a real mess and needs re-painting and i'm spraying the inner part of my splitrims with the grey.
    Thanks again, i can go order my paint now!!!

    No worries, had a look in your gallery.

    First time I've seen two tone, except for red on black.


    Good luck with the paint job.

    Mine is Red over Gunmetal, or perhaps A75 THURSTON GRAY since my skirts look quite similar to watson's.

    My "EXT" code is RA2B - if that makes sense...
