merian brown.

Volks -

I need a little help with the paint codes for my van.  I cannot locate
the sticker.  I have checked the drivers side batt. Box/under seat area,
near the fuse panel and a number of other places with no luck.

My van is a two-tone 1984 Wolfsburg Camper, brown on the bottom and
beige on top.  I am certain that the lower (brown) section of the van is
Merian Brown (LA8A), but I cannot find confirmation of the upper beige
code.  Searched archives and found this bit of info:

Year:1984 Model: Vanagon Model No:253A71 Color Code 485662

Under the manufacturers suggested retail price subsection it lists
Merian Brown/Toscana Beige Paint with no codes

Any one know the code?

Thanks,
Derek
