Paint and Trim combination options for EJ/EH

The EH and EJ were produced in a large range of colour and trim combinations. I have a compilation of all of the EJ colour and trim options available, and most of the EH colour and trim options available. If your vehicle was a fleet colour, it may have any of the STANDARD trims fitted to the vehicle. If your colours and trims do not match it may be because the interior of your vehicle is not original. The other explanation may be that quite a few customers did order their trims to be a different colour eg. Bone leather trim in a Valley Mist green Premier. Also some paint options may be different, and again this may be because the customer organised to get the roof painted by the dealer etc.
