The sales code is the code that is used on the color charts in the sales
brochures, and also used when a dealer orders a car. Not the same as the
paint code, and I dont know why VW/Audi operates with two codes for one

RL is the kode for Graphite interior, RG is Nautic and RK is Platinum.
Instead of 079, the Euro FA had M79 as PR-No. (which I dont know means)

black besides the solid Brilliant Black (which I have on my Cabby), I dont
remember wrong either.
