Default 69/70 red interior seat colors

I have a 1970 Red interior for my LeMans from Legendary— seats, door panels, headliner, etc. The Legendary color code is 513G. I also purchased their plastic seat backs and seat side pieces in red. The plastic pieces look darker than the seat covers, more like a maroon. Since the original interior wasn’t red, I don’t have anything to compare colors. For those of you with red interiors, do the seat plastic pieces match the seat cover color, or do the plastic pieces in my pics look correct? Thanks.

I have a red interior 70 Lemans and as it is a convertible the seat backs were quite sun bleached. But from the photos you posted I would say they are pretty damn close when compairing to mine.
Very encouraging to see that as I will need to order the same kit.
two questions for you, how long did it take to get, and did you install them your self?

It doesn't help that the repro grain is different so the paint will "sit" different,plus the originals were molded in colour
