Default Interior dye

Is it better to get the aresol or go with the paint can? I got a real good deal on seats from a 91 but it's the wrong color. My biggest problem is the seats are black and i need them to be Lt. Saddle. I realize they probably wont be a perfect match but at least they will be close.

What year? I have a pair of light beige seats from my '93. A guy at work wants to buy them, butr he's being iffy about them. They are in good condition, just one spot from geting in and out of the car.

BTW, I bought the aerosol can to dye the carpet on the hush panel.

I have an 86, the seats are from a 91 the are the sport seats. I have the tracks and everything but will probably reuse mine as he could not veryify that the tracks he gave we worked.

I think you may find that they all come from Corvette America, I ordered mine from Zip and it was dropshipped from Corvette America.
