So the center floor bezel on my 2000 Dakota SLT Club Cab with bench seats has some stain on it that I can't get out, and it kind of annoys me. While looking around on www.makeitmopar.com, I found the center bezel and it asks me to choose between Agate and Gray. What the hell is Agate? Here's a small pic of my interior, is this considered Agate or Gray?

 

Hard to tell in the picture. I'm pretty sure agate is a dark gray color (almost charcoal) and gray would be somewhat lighter. If I were to guess from your pic, it looks gray. Recommend you stop by your local dealer and ask the question. They should be able to hook you up pretty quick.

 

Would somebody, or a dealer, be able to tell from the VIN?

 

Don't know. Give the dealer a call and they should be able to help you. I would think they could from the VIN but not 100% sure. Seems like what I gave my VIN to the insurance company it gave them all of the specs for my vehicle. There may also be some codes in the glove box or on the door which gives the trim code. If you found them you could pobably google it to see what it means. But I would definitely give the dealer a call. They hopefully would be able to help you find out pretty easily.

 

Or just drop by the parts department and ask. Bring a piece in with you if possible.

 

agate=dark grey, nearly charcoal
grey=a combination of equal parts black and white

thank you dodge and ford for making obscure color refrences for simple colors

i'm off to find what "medium parchment" looks like, wish me luck
(i see fords, and as usual they're all broken)

 

LOL, thanks guys. Nothing like making simple things insanely difficult! I'll stop by the dealer tonight.
