Due to the lack of information currently available, we are unable to completely verify some of the interiors. We are hoping with some help from other Cabriolet owners, to be able to verify the various interior options. So if you happen to own a particular year of cabby, or have personal knowledge and photos of a particular interior, please email us to let us know, so we can make this informational resource as complete and accurate as possible for other owners and enthusiasts. Thanks!
