Building on this response. If if the interior code ends in A, you know it was a base. If it ends in B, it could be a Renegade or base with upgraded denim texture seats. If it's B and has holes for factory rocker trim, then it's highly likely it was a Renegade.

Congrats on grabbing those! Think that's a good price too. It's a little less than I paid for either of my 2 recent sets of 4, plus I shipped one. With a little polish yours will come out great. I used Mothers Mag and Aluminum polish. Bought that and some drill-bit polishing pads and went to...
