LH5U Dove Blue Metallic is not light blue, but dark blue. I have an '88 Westy that
color.
There was a two-tone blue in earlier years. I had an '82 diesel of that color combo,
the dark was Cornat Blue, LH5H, and the light was Guinea Blue, LH5K. Still have the
original Autobahn touch-up applicators.

Subject: color code for 1987 light blue Vanagon?

Is there more than one color code for a 1987 light blue vanagon?  My van is missing
the color code sticker under the fuse box and there isn't any sticker under the seat.
I am guessing the code is LH5U Dove blue metalic.  I saw there is also a marine blue
but it looks too dark.  I have based my guess on the following two web pages:

http://www.vanagon.com/info/years/1987/index.html

http://www.gti16v.com/vwcc1987.htm#vwcc1987

My van has two slightly different shades of light blue that does not look like it came
from VW that way.  I had a spray can of LH5U mixed up, but it looks a little off.
Does anyone know of another code for a light blue used for 87 model year?

Thanks

David Hines
