Default What year..it changed in 99.5 Dealer is about the only place.

There are 2 different silvers. Check either on your drivers door panel, in your spare whell well, or in your manual should have a big sticker with all the same numbers that are in the well.

Default well, "Light Silver Metallic" (as he said) is the 99.5+ color. Same as TT's Lake Silver, I believe

I have it at home (to give you the #), but like Bryce said, it's in the spare tire well, you just gotta konw which # it is

Yep! 2001.5, just about a month old. Dealer might be the best place to look for a small portion.

Default Dealer sells touch-up kits and has a paint code book. Lt. silver metallic is under MY 00.

If you tell them you have a '99, you'll get the wrong paint color. The switch to light sliver metallic for '99.5 (which is not an officially recognized designation) doesn't show up in the paint code book -- the correct code shows up for the first time under '00 in the book. I know this from firsthand experience.
