Here's the thread to check (at the bottom of page 2 shows this combo):

The "brown" is either Mocha or Sable; I'm not sure which. I'm sure someone can enlighten us.

so, was the mocca carried over from '82? I don't see it in the charts after '82. nor do I see the berberbeige anywhere but in '83.

Good luck on finding anything in Mocha anywhere in the US. It wasn't widespread in the US, and was only used on the early cars, pre-85. Most of what was sold here has turned to dust by now.

If your rear parcel shelf is faded I recommend just respraying the one you have.

Replacements would most likely be faded too.
