From my experience you will find a very limited range of colours in vinyl dye, viz, VHT, Dupi-colour.
However, this bloke might be worth a try. Glenn on 0402094455. He is, however, in southern Canberra.

I had my local automotive paint shop colour-match vinyl dye for both the roof lining and the dash cards. The dash cards went from black to red and were sprayed by a rank amateur (myself). I was very happy with the result.

From All Car Carpets. Good quality but a fair bit of "cut & shut" to get them to fit. I bought them just before they got the genuine manufacturing drawings.

Any good paint shop should be able to colour match your vinyl. I have used two paint shops in Brisbane area dozens of time for vinyl colouring for the many restos I have done.
