To make it easy, we have devised a code so that you can order the right upholstery for your Fiat 500. First, determine the configuration code and then look in the table to see which products you need for your Fiat 500. We hope this will help you make the right choices.
The code consists of 4 parts:
- Type
- Series
- Material
- Colour
A code could look like this: D-2-F-RD. This is a second series Fiat 500 D, fabric seat covers and in the colour Red.
The series have nothing to do with the series that are sometimes mentioned on other pages or websites. The series we are talking about here only relate to the upholstery.
More information about seat covers and panels can be found here.
