Looking for assistance with seat project. - Printed source

[Placerville]

Gentleman,

I'm trying to complete a project that identifies all GL seats from the naked years ('75-'84). It's purpose is to assist owners with the, "Will this seat fit my GL" type question. The thread will show every model seat made, it's pan and it's ability to fit other year GL's of the above years. The thread will be posted at the NGW and here if there's interest. I'm currently 95% completed with this project but, I require some missing information that I can't seem to locate so I'm casting my net out as far as I can e.g., here, Saunders, CWC etc.

From '82 to '84, Honda introduced various color combinations on the Interstate and Aspencade. With these new colors came a two-tone seat. The information I cannot locate is: What were the color combinations of the seats placed on the Interstate and Aspencade for years shown below?

If you know the answer to any of the models below or, better yet, if you are aware of any printed media that provides the information, please give me a hand. Note that the Honda Motorcycle Identification Guide does not contain this info. Thank you in advance for your help.

Having seen both the offerings of the 84 Standard, they were both Black seats.

This is all I could find - it's in the '80-'82 Parts Manual, in the gallery. The '83 and '84 manuald don't seem to have this chart:

Thank you, Steve83. This is exactly the kind of reference material I'm looking for. I've added the info to my list. Very helpful.
