Where do I find 0293 Indigo leather dye? None of the typical suppliers, Leatherique, World Upholstery, Leather Magic, Leather World Tech, etc... list this particular color.
I need to restore the leather in my 218 Alpine White 1990 325i convertible and can't find this color.
Yes, I know I could always take a sample from a place that has not been exposed to the sun and have the dye custom made but, I would have thought this would have been a standard color offered by someone in the aftermarket community.
Any suggestions?
I borrowed a leather swatch from my dealer and sent it to George at Leatherique to match. Reach out to him and if he doesnt have the formula he will match it

I Emailed Leatherique yesterday and have already heard back from them. They suggested the same... send them a swatch that hasn't faded in the sun and they will custom match a color to it.
Leather Magic will do the same.
If your e30 runs bad, switch to Megasquirt first. Then try new spark plugs, cap and rotor, wires, oxygen sensor, crank shaft position sensor, coolant temp sensor, air flow meter, idle control valve, throttle position sensor, digital motor electronics unit, harmonic balancer, fuel injectors, engine harness...
Did anyone ever send any of the named companies a swatch? I am leaning towards getting tan pieces and dying them seeing as it has become a hassle finding the actual pieces I need.
0& Kershaw, your sig left out the C191 connector, that was the last piece in the puzzle of my poorly running M20 '92 Cabrio.

The upper centers are ok on my seats. (shockingly)

No I didn't. Read the last item I listed. And if that was the issue, megasquirt would not have fixed it. I replaced everything on the engine 3+ times.
The issue was quite an odd one. Wire degradation and body harmonics were interfering with the square wave signal for the CPS. Something within the gestalt of the car was causing the signal to become messy. Megasquirt has more advanced sensors and can read through the signal drop. Supposedly a brand new engine harness was also a viable option but since ix engine harnesses were nla I'd have to hack up a brand new is engine harness and megasquirt cost the same. And megasquirt adds a lot of functionality over stock so it was a no brainer.
