    Need explanation of bmw spec sheet under back seat

    found a label under my back seat with some numbers on it when i was considering installing central locking in my e36.
    I am wondering if my paint code is on this, i was thinking 308 was the right code. its called brilliant red and my car is red.
    but by reference to the table on the site below 308 was used from 1988 to 1989, and my car is a 1992 model.

    Couple of them..
    I've been wondering the same thing but as far as the paint code goes, look under the hood on the driver's side strut tower and you should find the paint code as well as the color name.

    I also have a 308 paint code - Brilliantrot. I guess that chart is wrong as I have a 1993MY and have it as well.

    thanks alot, found the label, and it said 308/3. i am guessing the number after the slash is what shade of brilliant red it is.
