Hello all,

My S70 has an interior code of 3990 which is known as Granite, but I have also seen the leather portions listed as 3980-OAK. Are they really different leather colors, or is the leather the same color in 3990's, 3980's, and 3960's?

Hey.

The color is definitely different. 80 is oak, 60 is light beige and 90 is granite.

Thanks, I was afraid of that.

I see a good number of 3980's and 3960's. The 3990's seem rare for some reason.

Has anyone come up with a good source for new seat skins?

I got some really cheap in Florida from some guy who poked a hole in his wife's seat with a screwdriver.

Dealer has them but they are quite pricey
