Yep. Pain in the @rse. However, if you go to your local decent motor spares shop, they may well be able to make you some up on the spot. The only thing I found (wanting Platinum grey) is that it's not called Platinum grey in the rest of the world, but something like sombre grey. Same colour though, or at least close enough that I can't tell the difference :)

dont halfords mix to any shade? i needed some for mine and they mixed it there and then...just needed paint code off the car.

apperently there are many shades of seat ovni yellow... that might be the same for your colour. your paint code is on a sticker ....iirc in your boot or maybe in your handbook
