For the 5th generation, the only blue was in 1996. It was a dark blue, was very dark (IIRC). I wanted the dark blue after I saw it; but, that was after I bought my new then 1995 black Accord.

G-77M is sage green, which look closer to a light blue in person.

I was using memory, bad, and my 95 service manual.

I think the OP posted pic's of new tail lights, might have to find that but again - my bad memory - makes me think it was the green?

Yep, from the OP's album, that is the sage green.

I really wanted the dark blue after I saw it, 20 years ago.
