Color match..

So when I got my fox, I got a lot of things original. But the thing is..I am not the original owner of the car and there's barely any records on paper or even word of mouth. The interior is yes faded, and whether I try to dye it or just replace it, I would like to match the red that she is supposed to be..thing is..I'm not sure what shade of red she is..she looks to be that brighter red. From what I've been reading there's a few different reds..but if I attach a picture or two, could someone please help me out with pointing me in the right direction?

Have you looked at the bottom of the door tag where it says -- Int. Trim-- and looked at the trim ID letter and or number?
