color code question

Since iI have my steering column apart, decided I might paint flange and collar same as interior. Color code in the door is S. Everything I have found with the name midnight blue metallic comes up as color code 3g. Is this the same color? Can"t find an interior color code so I assume interior and exterior are the same.
