'98-'02 Firebird Cloth Interior Colors? I just bought a set of charcoal cloth seats out of an '00 Firebird to go in my '98 Z28. I need to replace one of the back seats I just bought because of some minor cuts. So my question is, what year(s) did the cloth interior colors and/or fabric designs change?
For example, the '98 and '99 Camaro interiors are identical, but they changed over from a a dark gray to a black (ebony) in either '00 or '01, so the seats won't match between those years. Did the Firebird change colors and/or fabric designs as well? What year(s) cloth seats will match the '00 cloth interior?
I checked the FAQ's and couldn't find the breakdown I was looking for.
Thanks!

I guessing you'll have to contact SLP directly for that info. I seriously doubt GM-VIS contains info on which SLP options were installed since they don't have individual RPOs.
I know in '98 cloth interiors came in Pewter and Taupe, while leather was available in Pewter and Taupe, and white leather was available in the 'verts.
I do remember black leather becoming available (and may have replaced pewter leather) in the T/As in 2000, but I'm not sure if black cloth was also available (and possibly replaced pewter cloth) on the Firebirds/Formulas.

As far as I can tell, the '98 - '00 Firebird cloth interior looks to be the same color and pattern, at least that's what it looks like from the few pics I can find. Did the Firebirds switch over to BLACK cloth in '01-'02 from the charcoal color of the '00's?

Verdad Gallardo Can anyone confirm if the the '00 and the '97 dark gray cloth interios is the same color and pattern? I found what I'm looking for from a '97, but it's hard to tell from the pics if it's the EXACT same to match the '00.
Here's what I've found online so far:
'96 & '97 = Metrix cloth, Graphite color
'98 & '99 = Metrix cloth, Dark Gray color
'00 & '01 = Cartagena cloth, Ebony color
I found that info here: Original Pontiac Firebird and Trans Am 1967-2002: The Restorer's Guide By Jim Schild
However, I've found a set of seat covers for a '97 and they LOOK like they will match the '00 (trying to compare a pic from a seller with what I've got here), so my question is, did GM just change the names and NOT the actual product, or IS there a difference between '97 and '00 Fiebird cloth interior colors/fabrics?

FWIW, the first '98 WS6 was converted at ASC on 2/18/98. Although there may have been a '97 mule w/ '98 body parts running around before that.

* = I have not been able to "validate" these numbers as the source of this data has missing info (other colors & cloth interiors).
I have some body color breakdown for the '01 WS6s, but I'm not trusting them yet since they don't add up to equal the number of WS6s built (either the numbers are in error or there is a color missing from my data, or some got crossed-up between coupes and 'verts: they are off in opposite directions about the same amount). Are you interested in coupe or 'vert? Which color?
