I've checked Rimmer & Prestige and neither shows that color, so I guess it'=
s unique to Moss. I wonder if there was a time when they couldn't get Light=
 Tan so they substituted Honey Tan and just kept it as an option. The two c=
olors are close with Honey Tan having more "gold" in it. A few years ago, I=
 had a discussion with them about their vinyl and I was told that all the c=
olors are proprietary to them. At least they took my advice about making th=
eir vinyl available to buy "by the yard".

Thanks for your input

The trim codes in the brown/tan family that I can find are: chestnut, tan, =
