Default Need help to identify 65-66 seats

I have a pair of seats from a 65-66 that I bought wrecked 30 years ago. Want to sell them and am trying to de-code the tags found under one seat. Small metal tags (2); one is stamped SG-3866415-4 and the other 7-26. Are these #415 code leather seats from a 65 in blue, or 66 leather in bright blue? What's -4 and the 7-26? Incomplete date code? Help! Thanks!

How many "pleats" are on the seat bottom?

That is how I tell the difference.

I counted 7 pleats in the seat bottom, although the last pleat at the rear is a little wider than the rest. That help?
