Center lid RPO Coded

So I am wanting to replace my center lid on my 1986 iroc because the sides have buckled out. However I don't want to lose my RPO codes. Is there somewhere they remakes the sticker for my codes I could put in the new lid?

Get someone to scan it and reprint it for you.

Not hard to do

You can't peel off the original sticker and stick it on the new lid? Sounds like you have it. They come off pretty easily without being damaged.

A heat gun will soften the adhesive. Doesn't take much heat to remove.

Appreciate it. I will try that and just glue it back into my new lid.

Go easy on it though. Its easy to burn the label, 10-30 seconds and the adhesive goes soft.

I used a hair dryer to peel mine off when I swapped consoles in my iroc

Re: Center lid RPO Coded

So I figured out a better way. I bought a new center console lid from hawks. I took off the underside of the lid off my old one that had my rpo codes. I then took out the underside lid on the new one and replaced it with my original one. Now I have a new lid with my original rpo codes in it
