Default 71 Trim question

The trim code on my '71 is 417 which is saddle. Was there only one shade of saddle in '71? I'm confused by the comments about light and dark saddle.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, in 71 there was only one saddle. Other years had a light and dark saddle. The '71 saddle is the same as the dark one.

417 is code for Saddle with vinyl interior; 420 is code for Saddle with leather interior. My recollection is that those two codes were close on color match, but not dead-on. I believe that the leather was a bit darker than the vinyl Saddle color.
