History / Originality Got a question about 1982-1992 Camaro or Firebird history? Have a question about original parts, options, RPO codes, when something was available, or how to document your car? Those questions, answers, and much more!

Which decoder would I need....

Finally got around to making a note of the details on the worn metal tag in the engine bay above the radiator on my 'Bird. Which decoder should I look for to decipher the numbers, unless some kind soul would like to save me the job?

(We've already ascertained in previous threads that the VIN plate behind the windscreen doesn't match the car...)

D 02A 2FS87L 210104
64C 19L 190 W
AR9
D B S 022086

Cheers,
Mark.

Thanks for the info!

At least it confirms the car has the right interior and exterior colours, also the correct gfx.

Bucket seats?? Have I lost something in the translation here - the front seats just look like normal everyday car seats with headrests, they're not the Knight Rider... SORRY! PMD seats with the integral headrests. Looking at their condition and the rear seats they look original I'd say.

Cheers,
Mark.

AR9 was just a regular code for any bucket seats(EX vinyl base seats ) not just Pmd seats.Although pmd seats were a dealer only option in 83.
