Originality / Headlamp Washers on a NON RS car

« on: November 29, 2013, 05:03:02 PM »

Has anyone seen a NON RS car with HLamp washers installed on a standard grill?  

I assume this was an option available originally?

I have recently seen a non RS grill with the washer nozzles holes drilled - car did not have the RS washer pump, but it was a restored car so hard to tell what was original.  

Thoughts?

Originality / Camaro Mats

« on: December 16, 2012, 10:23:48 PM »

I have been saving a set of NOS front mats for my 69 camaro - number on the box says 993668 - Dark Green front set

Today i finally took them out of the box after 14 yrs and they look to be med green instead of the dark green.  The number on the mat 3949520 L&R

Does anyone have a cross ref to determine if these mats are correct for a dark green interior?   They just seem too light for the dark green interior that i have - but maybe there were this way originally?

Appreciate the advise
