Default Two-tone stitching

I'm ordering the Adrenaline Red seat, two-tone, will the sticking be red or black?
If I want to have the red stitching do I have to also order 38S 395$

Not complaining about the 395$ it would seem they would use red.

thanks

I have a preliminary order in with these seats on a 3lt,
My dealer says when the final order is placed we will get a better understanding of why we needed all these codes and pricing for these seats
38s red stitching
TU7 seats two tone
R6X custom interior seat trim and seat combination

George,

I am ordering the exact same 3LT interior on a TR car. I believe that with the TU7 Two Toned seats, and the red interior, it will automatically come with the red stitching and no need to order 38S. When I looked at the ordering guide, it states that the 38S requires the R6X custom interior, which this is NOT. This is a straight forward, 3LT with red interior, and two toned seats.

If you are really particular and cant get what you want... there are forum posts in c7 forum and youtube videos on how to dye/color stitching. It's not that difficult, you basically just get a fabric color marker and go over the stitching. The color wont stick to the leather, only the stitching.
never done it myself, just an option.

I have torch Red now and love it, but I may change the color to LBR with Natural dipped int. I'm going to Carlisle this weekend and hope to see both colors there.

while I posted an update, the corvette concierge just email me to say she may have misspoke. stay tuned.

UPDATE: The Corvette Concierge just called me back for a second time..... after she called me yesterday and then email me moments later, she had misspoken. She just called me back to let me know the I WAS CORRECT all along,

To get an interior that looks like what is shown on response #3 above, which is what I want, and already ordered..... 3LT with Adrenalin Red interior ( HU2). Order two tone seats (TU7). The interior will automatically come with red stitching with the red interior.

There is NO NEED to order a custom interior (R6X) or 38S (red stitching. Those are for those who want a black interior with red seats or other combinations, and NO need for 38S red stitching, as again, those who want to add it to a black interior.
