Ok, i'll try to help, but unfortunately (for you it is in Dutch.

Go to: http://www.teedrie.nl/
On the left side of the page there is a navigator, goto 'het m-plaatje', it
shows you the location of the code.
Then lower in the same navigator there is a button called 'lakcodes'.
This should tell you what colorcode you have, BUT... there is no John-Deere
green in that list. So for your sake i hope it is called differently...

BTW 'green' is 'groen' in dutch.

Yea, that did it. The sticker with the code is hidden under the dash, below
the fusebox.

Thanks ! Or maybe I should say Dank U

I've seen the paint codes on the fuel tank cover plate in the trunk of
my golf and jetta. Check that out in your van.

You're welcome
What is the color called anyway? Is it John-Deere green?
