good parts source?
I am by no means fully restoring my truck, but I have a green interior and need some replacement parts. I could convert it to another color, but that would involve replacing a lot of good green parts, so it would actually be more cost effective to pay more for an off-color part than to replace everything. It seems like the only replacement parts available are black, and sometimes blue or red.
I'm hesitant to use the vinyl dye because I'm not sure how long it will last before cracking or peeling off.
Anybody know of a good parts supplier that sells the not-so-popular green interior parts?
Saw the JC Whitney thread, that's not an option.

A good Paint house should be able to mix you up some interior paint for plastic parts and put it into a spray can cost a lot more that the cans at the parts houses but you most likely can match the color you have now and freshen up your old stuff this is what I did for my crew cab parts witch are near impossable to fine and they look like new the paint house paints are a lauqer and adhere to the plastic clean parts to be cleaned with a interior cleaner that dosen't leave a film and it should last a long time
