Corolla Interior Swatches?

[hunterxaz]

Is there a list of the fabrics that Toyota used for their interiors, or is there a way to know what kind of fabric was used? I'm looking for a 99 Corolla Driver's Seat, and having trouble finding a match. There's some junkyard w/ some Gray and Tan interiors, both of which look like they match my car. I dunno.

Doubt that you'll find the exact material they used - colors would also change slightly from model year to model year and trim levles. Depending on what needs to be done - might be much more economical to get the seats reupholstered. For the cost of a brand new seat - you could probably redo all the seats in the car. Some have taken this time to do something like leather seats in an 8th gen - which was never offered on the car originally.

Don't need to go that route, I'm trying to sell the car. I just wanted to have a matching seat to throw in there. The back cushion is broke on the driver's side.

So it's the rear seat that's broken?

Nobody's going to compare the fabric pattern of the front seats to the rear seat. Just make sure it's the same color: grey if you have grey, or tan if you have tan.

...and make sure there's no cigarette burns or stains. (People do look for that.)

I read it as the seatback on the front seat is broken. Some people are more picky than others - might be able to get away with patterns that are close, as long as the color is more or less the same. But can be a pain - as even a slight pattern difference or shade difference can be picked up almost immediately.
