I believe it was possibly me with the steering wheel trim being painted (on the old forum)?
I took a piece of door trim to a motor factors. They mixed a match for for me and popped it into a rattle can, but i'm not sure if anyone can do that now? 'elf and safety etc
From the old style to new was one of my early 'upgrades', years ago now in fact. I hated the original set-up.

That spray isn't a perfect match but isn't far off. See here
