Polar Blue stitching thread

I'm working on a project for my car that would need Polar Blue stitching.
From my research I've read that BMW is supplied by Amann, using their Serafil Polyester thread; they have a lot of teal shades. I sent them an email to see if I ca drop by their Gardena, CA office and do a visual color match and thread material match. Still waiting to hear back from them.
Has anyone done this research and was successful in finding the OEM thread?

Order Serafill TEX210 through Relicate - 1394. Color match for the interior.

Update try
8842 too. Seems lighting is hard to determine the two colors.

Might have problems with the M4 armrest shifting forward into the iDrive controller when it slides forward; not sure how well they fit up
